File: .../x11/server/dix/BuiltInAtoms
|
|
|
|
This file is of a fixed format and is used to generate both the file
|
|
include/XAtom.h and dix/initatoms.c. Neither of those files should be
|
|
edited directly. Changing the atoms in this file, or even the order in
|
|
which they occur, is equivalent to forcing a new (minor) version number
|
|
on the server. Take care.
|
|
|
|
The format of the file is that each built in atom starts in column 1
|
|
with no text, other than spaces and tabs, on that line other than a
|
|
mandatory trailing "@" at the end of the line. For each atom (Foo)
|
|
below the defines will be of the form
|
|
#define XA_Foo <n>
|
|
and the string value of the atom will be "Foo".
|
|
|
|
The comment lines in this file are not guaranteed to be accurate. To see the
|
|
current truth, look at the Xlib documentation as well as the protocol spec.
|
|
|
|
Atoms occur in five distinct name spaces within the protocol. Any particular
|
|
atom may or may not have some client interpretation within each of the name
|
|
spaces. For each of the built in atoms, the intended semantics and the space
|
|
within which it is defined is indicated.
|
|
|
|
Those name spaces are

Used to implement cut buffer ring, in particular Andrew uses

this mechanism. Anyone else using this sort of IPC mechanism

should use these properties.
|
|
|
|
Data is normally fetched and stored out of CUT_BUFFER0; the

|
RotateProperties request is used to rotate these buffers.

Property type:

red-max: CARD32
|
|
red-mult: CARD32
|
|
green-max: CARD32
|

green-mult: CARD32
|
|
blue-max: CARD32
|
|
blue-mult: CARD32
|
|
base-pixel: CARD32
|
|
|
|
The fields `red_max', `green_max', and `blue_max' give the maximum
|
|
red, green, and blue values, respectively. Each color
|
|
coefficient ranges from 0 to its max, inclusive. For example,
|
|
a common colormap allocation is 3/3/2: 3 planes for red, 3
|
|
planes for green, and 2 planes for blue. Such a colormap would
|
|
have red_max == 7, green_max = 7, and blue_max = 3. An alternate
|
|
allocation that uses only 216 colors is red_max = 5, green_max =
|
|
5, and blue_max = 5.
|
|
|
|
The fields `red_mult', `green_mult', and `blue_mult' give the
|
|
scale factors used to compose a full pixel value. (See next
|
|
paragraph.) For a 3/3/2 allocation red_mult might be 32,
|
|
green_mult might be 4, and blue_mult might be 1. For a
|
|
6-colors-each allocation, red_mult might be 36, green_mult might
|
|
be 6, and blue_mult might be 1.
|
|
|
|
The field `base_pixel' gives the base pixel value used to
|
|
compose a full pixel value. Normally base_pixel is obtained
|
|
from a call to XAllocColorPlanes(). Given integer red, green,
|
|
and blue coefficients in their appropriate ranges, one can
|
|
compute a corresponding pixel value with the expression:
|
|
|
|
r * red_mult + g * green_mult + b * blue_mult + base_pixel
|
|
|
|
For gray-scale colormaps, only the colormap, red_max, red_mult,
|
|
and base_pixel fields are defined; the other fields are
|
|
ignored. To compute a gray-scale pixel value, use:
|
|
|
|
gray * red_mult + base_pixel
|
|
|
|
This is provided to allow applications to share color maps.

RGB_GRAY_MAP @
|
|
RGB_GREEN_MAP @
|
|
RGB_RED_MAP @
|
|
Property name: (type: RGB_COLOR_MAP)
|
|
The needs of most applications can be met with five colormaps.
|
|
Polite applications may need only a small RGB space, and can
|
|
use a portion of the default color map. Applications doing
|
|
high-quality RGB rendering will need an entire colormap,
|
|
filled with as large an RGB space as possible, e.g. 332. For
|
|
color separations, an application may need maximum device
|
|
resolution for each of red, green, and blue, even if this
|
|
requires three renderings with three colormaps.
|
|
|
|
Each of the above five names would be used for sharing color
|
|
maps.
