XTextProperty *\fItext_prop\fP\^); 
.HP
Status XGetWMIconName\^(\^Display *\fIdisplay\fP\^, Window \fIw\fP\^,

.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP \fIdisplay\fP 1i
Specifies the connection to the X server.
.IP \fIicon_name\fP 1i
Specifies the icon name,
which should be a null-terminated string.
.IP \fIicon_name_return\fP 1i
Returns the window's icon name,
which is a null-terminated string.
.IP \fItext_prop\fP 1i
Specifies the
.ZN XTextProperty
structure to be used.
.IP \fItext_prop_return\fP 1i
Returns the
.ZN XTextProperty
structure.
.IP \fIw\fP 1i
Specifies the window.
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.ZN XSetWMIconName
convenience function calls
.ZN XSetTextProperty
to set the WM_ICON_NAME property.
.LP
The 
.ZN XGetWMIconName 
convenience function calls
.ZN XGetTextProperty 
to obtain the WM_ICON_NAME property.
It returns a nonzero status on success;
otherwise, it returns a zero status.
.LP
The
.ZN XSetIconName
function sets the name to be displayed in a window's icon.
.LP
.ZN XSetIconName
can generate
.ZN BadAlloc
and
.ZN BadWindow
errors.
.LP
The
.ZN XGetIconName
function returns the name to be displayed in the specified window's icon.
If it succeeds, it returns a nonzero status; otherwise, 
if no icon name has been set for the window,
it returns zero.
If you never assigned a name to the window,
.ZN XGetIconName
sets icon_name_return to NULL.
If the data returned by the server is in the Latin Portable Character Encoding,
then the returned string is in the Host Portable Character Encoding.
Otherwise, the result is implementation-dependent.
When finished with it, a client must free
the icon name string using
.ZN XFree .
.LP
.ZN XGetIconName
can generate a
.ZN BadWindow
error.
.SH PROPERTIES
.TP 1i
\s-1WM_ICON_NAME\s+1

.SH DIAGNOSTICS
.TP 1i
.ZN BadAlloc
The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.
.TP 1i
