Properties with the word “Yes” in the “Get” column of the property table can be retrieved via IDLsysMonitorInfo::GetProperty. Properties with the word “Yes” in the “Init” column of the property table can be set via IDLsysMonitorInfo::Init. Properties with the word “Yes” in the “Set” column in the property table can be set via IDLsysMonitorInfo::SetProperty.

Note: For a discussion of the property description tables shown below, see Modifying Object Property Descriptions.

Objects of this class have the following properties.

DISPLAY_NAME

This property contains the X Windows server display name string of the monitor that this object queries for monitor information. The default value is the empty string (“”). This property may be stored and retrieved on Windows systems, but has no effect on the object. On UNIX systems, if the value of the property is an empty string, the object retrieves the monitor information from the default X Display connection in effect for IDL. If the object cannot contact the X server specified by this property, no error is issued, but all the “Get” methods for this class return no data, as detailed in the description for each method.
