|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XCreateColormap
|
|
function creates a colormap of the specified visual type for the screen
|
|
on which the specified window resides and returns the colormap ID
|
|
associated with it.
|
|
Note that the specified window is only used to determine the screen.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The initial values of the colormap entries are undefined for the
|
|
visual classes
|
|
.ZN GrayScale ,
|
|
.ZN PseudoColor ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN DirectColor .
|
|
For
|
|
.ZN StaticGray ,
|
|
.ZN StaticColor ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN TrueColor ,
|
|
the entries have defined values,
|
|
but those values are specific to the visual and are not defined by X.
|
|
For
|
|
.ZN StaticGray ,
|
|
.ZN StaticColor ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN TrueColor ,
|
|
alloc must be
|
|
.ZN AllocNone ,
|
|
or a
|
|
.ZN BadMatch
|
|
error results.
|
|
For the other visual classes,
|
|
if alloc is
|
|
.ZN AllocNone ,
|
|
the colormap initially has no allocated entries,
|
|
and clients can allocate them.
|
|
For information about the visual types,
|
|
see section 3.1.
|
|
.LP
|
|
If alloc is
|
|
.ZN AllocAll ,
|
|
the entire colormap is allocated writable.
|
|
The initial values of all allocated entries are undefined.
|
|
For
|
|
.ZN GrayScale
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN PseudoColor ,
|
|
the effect is as if an
|
|
.ZN XAllocColorCells
|
|
call returned all pixel values from zero to N \- 1,
|
|
where N is the colormap entries value in the specified visual.
|
|
For
|
|
.ZN DirectColor ,
|
|
the effect is as if an
|
|
.ZN XAllocColorPlanes
|
|
call returned a pixel value of zero and red_mask, green_mask,
|
|
and blue_mask values containing the same bits as the corresponding
|
|
masks in the specified visual.
|
|
However, in all cases,
|
|
none of these entries can be freed by using
|
|
.ZN XFreeColors .
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XCreateColormap
|
|
can generate
|
|
.ZN BadAlloc ,
|
|
.ZN BadMatch ,
|
|
.ZN BadValue ,
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN BadWindow
|
|
errors.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XCopyColormapAndFree
|
|
function creates a colormap of the same visual type and for the same screen
|
|
as the specified colormap and returns the new colormap ID.
|
|
It also moves all of the client's existing allocation from the specified
|
|
colormap to the new colormap with their color values intact
|
|
and their read-only or writable characteristics intact and frees those entries
|
|
in the specified colormap.
|
|
Color values in other entries in the new colormap are undefined.
|
|
If the specified colormap was created by the client with alloc set to
|
|
.ZN AllocAll ,
|
|
the new colormap is also created with
|
|
.ZN AllocAll ,
|
|
all color values for all entries are copied from the specified colormap,
|
|
and then all entries in the specified colormap are freed.
|
|
If the specified colormap was not created by the client with
|
|
.ZN AllocAll ,
|
|
the allocations to be moved are all those pixels and planes
|
|
that have been allocated by the client using
|
|
.ZN XAllocColor ,
|
|
.ZN XAllocNamedColor ,
|
|
.ZN XAllocColorCells ,
|
|
or
|
|
.ZN XAllocColorPlanes
|
|
and that have not been freed since they were allocated.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XCopyColormapAndFree
|
|
can generate
|
|
.ZN BadAlloc
|
|
and
|
|
.ZN BadColor
|
|
errors.
|
|
.LP
|
|
The
|
|
.ZN XFreeColormap
|
|
function deletes the association between the colormap resource ID
|
|
and the colormap and frees the colormap storage.
|
|
However, this function has no effect on the default colormap for a screen.
|
|
If the specified colormap is an installed map for a screen,
|
|
it is uninstalled (see
|
|
.ZN XUninstallColormap ).
|
|
If the specified colormap is defined as the colormap for a window (by
|
|
.ZN XCreateWindow ,
|
|
.ZN XSetWindowColormap ,
|
|
or
|
|
.ZN XChangeWindowAttributes ),
|
|
.ZN XFreeColormap
|
|
changes the colormap associated with the window to
|
|
.ZN None
|
|
and generates a
|
|
.ZN ColormapNotify
|
|
event.
|
|
X does not define the colors displayed for a window with a colormap of
|
|
.ZN None .
|
|
.LP
|
|
.ZN XFreeColormap
|
|
can generate a
|
|
.ZN BadColor
|
|
error.

.SH STRUCTURES

.De
|
|
.LP
|
|
The red, green, and blue values are always in the range 0 to 65535
|
|
inclusive, independent of the number of bits actually used in the
|
|
display hardware.
|
|
The server scales these values down to the range used by the hardware.
|
|
Black is represented by (0,0,0),
|
|
and white is represented by (65535,65535,65535).
|
|
.IN "Color"
|
|
In some functions,
|
|
the flags member controls which of the red, green, and blue members is used
|
|
and can be the inclusive OR of zero or more of
|
|
.ZN DoRed ,
|
|
.ZN DoGreen ,
|
|
and

|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadAlloc
|
|
The server failed to allocate the requested resource or server memory.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadColor
|
|
A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadMatch
|
|
An
|
|
.ZN InputOnly
|
|
window is used as a Drawable.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadMatch
|
|
Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails
|
|
to match in some other way required by the request.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadValue
|
|
Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
|
|
Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined
|
|
by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of
|
|
alternatives can generate this error.
|
|
.TP 1i
|
|
.ZN BadWindow
|
|
A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
