ActivateWindow -- Activate an Intuition window.
ActivateWindow( Window )
A0
VOID ActivateWindow( struct Window * );
Activates an Intuition window.
Note that this call may have its action deferred: you cannot assume
that when this call is made the selected window has become active.
This action will be postponed while the user plays with gadgets and
menus, or sizes and drags windows. You may detect when the window
actually has become active by the IDCMP_ACTIVEWINDOW IDCMP message.
This call is intended to provide flexibility but not to confuse the
user. Please call this function synchronously with some action
by the user.
Window = a pointer to a Window structure
None.
Some versions of the documentation claimed that this function
had a meaningful return value under V36 and higher. That is
not true.
Calling this function in a tight loop can blow out Intuition's
deferred action queue.
