NAME

xcb_create_pixmap - Creates a pixmap

SYNOPSIS

#include <xcb/xproto.h>

Request function

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_create_pixmap(xcb_connection_t *conn,
uint8_t depth, xcb_pixmap_t pid, xcb_drawable_t drawable,
uint16_t width, uint16_t height);

REQUEST ARGUMENTS

conn The XCB connection to X11.

depth TODO

pid The ID with which you will refer to the new pixmap, created
by xcb_generate_id.

drawable Drawable to get the screen from.

width The width of the new pixmap.

height The height of the new pixmap.

DESCRIPTION

Creates a pixmap. The pixmap can only be used on the same screen as
drawable is on and only with drawables of the same depth.

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_create_pixmap_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.

ERRORS

xcb_alloc_error_t
The X server could not allocate the requested resources (no
memory?).

xcb_drawable_error_t
The specified drawable (Window or Pixmap) does not exist.

xcb_value_error_t
TODO: reasons?
