.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.B DMXAddInput()
|
||
|
is used to attach a new input (or a previously detached input) to the
|
||
|
.BR Xdmx (1)
|
||
|
server.
|
||
|
.I mask
|
||
|
specifies the fields in
|
||
|
.I attr
|
||
|
that are active, and
|
||
|
.I id
|
||
|
returns the device if of the first device in the series that is added.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
The value of
|
||
|
.I mask
|
||
|
is computed from the following values:
|
||
|
.sp
|
||
|
.nf
|
||
|

|
||

The
|
||
|

|
||
|

|
.sp
|

|

.fi
|

.I inputType
|
||
|
may bave the value
|
||
|
.B DmxConsoleInputType " or " DmxBackendInputType .
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
For console devices,
|
||
|
.I name
|
||
|
will specify the display to be used.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
For back-end devices,
|
||
|
.I physicalScreen
|
||
|
will specify the
|
||
|
.BR Xdmx (1)
|
||
|
screen number.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
If
|
||
|
.I sendsCore
|
||
|
is
|
||
|
.BR True ,
|
||
|
the new device will be added as a true core device.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
If a device was removed with
|
||
|
.BR DMXRemoveInput (3X)
|
||
|
an attempt will be made to reconnect the previous devices
|
||
|
.RI ( sendsCore
|
||
|
is ignored in this case).
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.B DMXAddBackendInput()
|
||
|
is a helper function that is used to add input from a back-end server.
|
||
|
With this function,
|
||
|
.I screen
|
||
|
refers to the back-end screen,
|
||
|
.I sendsCore
|
||
|
is
|
||
|
.B True
|
||
|
if the new input should send core events (and it ignored if the input
|
||
|
has been detached), and
|
||
|
.I newId
|
||
|
will hold the device id of the first device in the series added.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.B DMXAddConsoleInput()
|
||
|
is a helper function that is used to add input from a console. With
|
||
|
this function,
|
||
|
.I name
|
||
|
is the name of the console display,
|
||
|
.I sendsCore
|
||
|
is
|
||
|
.B True
|
||
|
if the new input should send core events (and it ignored if the input
|
||
|
has been detached), and
|
||
|
.I newId
|
||
|
will hold the device id of the first device in the series added.
|
||
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
||
|
.B DMXAddInput()
|
||
|
returns
|
||
|
.B True
|
||
|
on success and
|
||
|
.B False
|
||
|
otherwise.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
.B DMXAddInput()
|
||
|
can generate
|
||
|
.B BadValue
|
||
|
(if
|
||
|
.I inputType
|
||
|
is invalid or
|
||
|
.I physicalScreen
|
||
|
is out of range),
|
||
|
.B BadAccess
|
||
|
(if the input has already been attached or if the backend screen is
|
||
|
currently detached).
|
