.SH NAME

DMXGetInputAttributes \- determine input device attributes

|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B #include <X11/extensions/dmxext.h>
|
|
.sp
|
|
.nf
|
|
.BI "Bool DMXGetInputAttributes(Display " *dpy ,
|
|
.BI " int " id ,
|
|
.BI " DMXInputAttributes " *attr );
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B DMXGetInputAttributes()
|
|
returns information about the input device specified with
|
|
.IR id .
|
|
This information cannot be
|
|
obtained from the
|
|
.BR XListInputDeivices (__libmansuffix__)
|
|
call.
|
|
.I id
|
|
is the same as that used by the
|
|
.BR XListInputDevices (__libmansuffix__)
|
|
call, and must be in
|
|
the range 0 to one less than the value returned by
|
|
.BR DMXGetInputCount(__libmansuffix__) ,
|
|
inclusive.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The
|
|
.B DMXInputAttributes
|
|
structure is:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.nf
|
|
typedef struct {
|
|
DMXInputEnum inputType;
|
|
int physicalScreen;
|
|
int physicalId;
|
|
Bool isCore;
|
|
Bool sendsCore;
|
|
const char *name;
|
|
Bool detached;
|
|
} DMXInputAttributes;
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
The value of
|
|
.I inputType
|
|
will always be valid, and will have one of the following values,
|
|
depending on the type of input:
|
|
.B DMXLocalInputType ", " DMXConsoleInputType ", or" DMXBackendInputType .
|
|
.PP
|
|
For local devices, all other fields returned, except
|
|
.I isCore " and " sendsCore ,
|
|
are invalid.
|
|
.PP
|
|
For console devices,
|
|
.I physicalScreen " and " physicalID
|
|
will be invalid, and
|
|
.I name
|
|
will return the name of the X server on which the console window is
|
|
displayed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
For back-end devices,
|
|
.I physicalScreen
|
|
will identify the back-end display and can be used as an argument to
|
|
.BR DMXGetScreenAttributes (__libmansuffix__)
|
|
to obtain more information;
|
|
.I physicalId
|
|
will be the XInput device id on the back-end X server; and
|
|
.I name
|
|
will be invalid (since it does not provide any additional information
|
|
that cannot be obtained with
|
|
.BR DMXGetScreenAttributes (__libmansuffix__)).
|
|
.PP
|
|
If
|
|
.I isCore
|
|
is
|
|
.BR True ,
|
|
then this device is active as a true core input device and will send
|
|
core events. If
|
|
.B sendsCore
|
|
is True, then this device is an XInput extension device, but sends core
|
|
events
|
|
.I instead
|
|
of extension events. This behavior is different from that of XFree86 or
|
|
Xorg, where XInput extension devices may send
|
|
.I both
|
|
extension events and core events.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If
|
|
.I detached
|
|
is True, then this device has been detached and is no longer producing
|
|
input events. The device may be reattached using
|
|
.BR DMXAddInput (__libmansuffix__).
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
.B DMXGetInputAttributes()
|
|
returns
|
|
.B True
|
|
unless there is a protocol error.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B DMXGetInputAttributes()
|
|
can generate
|
|
.B BadValue
|
|
(if the value of
|
|
.I id
|
|
is out of range).
