SYNOPSIS

#include <X11/extensions/XInput.h>
|
|
|

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
The XSendExtensionEvent request identifies the destination
|
|
window, determines which clients should receive the specified
|
|
events, and ignores any active grabs. This request requires you
|
|
to pass an event class list. For a discussion of the valid
|
|
event class names, see XOpenDevice(libmansuffix) This
|
|
request uses the w argument to identify the destination window
|
|
as follows:
|
|
* If w is PointerWindow,the destination window is the window
|
|
that contains the pointer.
|
|
* If w is InputFocusand if the focus window contains the
|
|
pointer,the destination window is the window that contains
|
|
the pointer; otherwise, the destination window is the focus
|
|
window.
|
|
|
|
To determine which clients should receive the specified events,
|
|
XSendExtensionEventuses the propagate argument as follows:
|
|
* If event_list is the empty set,the event is sent to the
|
|
client that created the destination window. If that client
|
|
no longer exists,no event is sent.
|
|
* If propagate is False,the event is sent to every client
|
|
selecting on destination any of the eventtypes specified by
|
|
the event_list array.
|
|
* If propagate is Trueand no clients have selected on
|
|
destination any ofthe events specified by the event_list
|
|
array,the destination is replaced with theclosest ancestor
|
|
of destination for which some client has selected atype
|
|
specified by the event-list array and for which no
|
|
interveningwindow has that type in
|
|
itsdo-not-propagate-mask. If no such window exists or if
|
|
the window isan ancestor of the focus window and
|
|
InputFocuswas originally specifiedas the destination, the
|
|
event is not sent to any clients. Otherwise, the event is
|
|
reported to every client selecting on the finaldestination
|
|
any of the events specified in the event_list array.
|
|
|
|
The event in the XEventstructure must be one of the events
|
|
defined by the input extension (or a BadValueerror results) so
|
|
that the X server can correctly byte-swapthe contents as
|
|
necessary. The contents of the event areotherwise unaltered and
|
|
unchecked by the X server except to force send_event to Truein
|
|
the forwarded event and to set the serial number in the event
|
|
correctly.
|
|
|
|
XSendExtensionEventreturns zero if the conversion to wire
|
|
protocol format failedand returns nonzero
|
|
otherwise.XSendExtensionEventcan generate BadClass, BadDevice,
|
|
BadValue, and BadWindow errors.

|
|
DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
BadDevice
|
|
An invalid device was specified. The specified device
|
|
does not exist or has not been opened by this client via
|
|
XOpenInputDevice. This error may also occur if the
|
|
specified device is the X keyboard or X pointer device.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
BadWindow
|
|
A value for a Window argument does not name a defined
|
|
window.
