NAME


XcupStoreColors - initialize shareable colormap entries at specific
locations

SYNOPSIS


cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lXext [ library ... ]
#include <X11/extensions/Xcup.h>

Status XcupStoreColors(Display *display, Colormap colormap,
XColor *colors_in_out, int ncolors);

ARGUMENTS


display Specifies the connection to the X server

colormap Specifies the colormap

colors_in_out
Specifies and returns the values actually used in the
colormap

ncolors Specifies the number of items in colors_in_out

DESCRIPTION


The XcupStoreColors function changes the colormap entries of the
pixel values in the pixel members of the XColor structures. The
colormap entries are allocated as if an AllocColor has been used
instead, i.e. the colors are read-only (shareable). XcupStoreColors
returns the number of colors that were successfully allocated in the
colormap.

A Value error is generated if a pixel is not a valid index into the
colormap. A BadMatch error is generated if the colormap does not
belong to a GrayScale, PseudoColor, or DirectColor visual.

Applications which allocate many colors in a screen's default
colormap, e.g. a color-cube or a gray-ramp, should allocate them
with XCupStoreColors. By using XCupStoreColors the colors will be
allocated shareable (read-only) and any other application which
allocates the same color will share that color cell.
