xcb_composite_redirect_window(3) XCB Requests

NAME

xcb_composite_redirect_window - Redirect the heirarchy starting at
"window" to off-screen storage.

SYNOPSIS

#include <xcb/composite.h>

Request function

xcb_void_cookie_t
xcb_composite_redirect_window(xcb_connection_t *conn,
xcb_window_t window, uint8_t update);

REQUEST ARGUMENTS

conn The XCB connection to X11.

window The root of the heirarchy to redirect to off-screen
storage.

update Whether contents are automatically mirrored to the parent
window. If one client already specifies an update type
of Manual, any attempt by another to specify a mode of
Manual so will result in an Access error.

DESCRIPTION

The hierarchy starting at 'window' is directed to off-screen
storage. When all clients enabling redirection terminate, the
redirection will automatically be disabled.

The root window may not be redirected. Doing so results in a
Match error.

RETURN VALUE

Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in
the event loop.

If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead,
use xcb_composite_redirect_window_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for
details.

ERRORS

This request does never generate any errors.
