xtrans is a library of code that is shared among various X packages to handle
|
|
network protocol transport in a modular fashion, allowing a single place to
|
|
add new transport types. It is used by the X server, libX11, libICE, the
|
|
X font server, and related components.
|
|
|
|
It is however, *NOT* a shared library, but code which each consumer includes and
|
|
builds it's own copy of with various #ifdef flags to make each copy slightly
|
|
different. To support this in the modular build system, this package simply
|
|
installs the C source files into $(prefix)/include/X11/Xtrans and installs a
|
|
pkg-config file and an autoconf m4 macro file with the flags needed to use it.
|
|
|
|
Documentation of the xtrans API can be found in the xorg-docs package, in
|
|
PostScript format in xorg-docs/hardcopy/xtrans/Xtrans.PS.gz and in the original
|
|
troff format in xorg-docs/specs/xtrans/Xtrans.mm . |
