Low-level X programming

[Ken Lee]

When my app receives the PropertyNotify event I wish to look up the new
value of WM_NAME & so I make a XGetText() call, but the window has been
destroyed & hence I get a 'BadWindow' error.
Is there any way to prevent this?

Use an error handler to catch the BadWindow and do something other than exit.

Is this a standard way of handling these kind of situations?
