NAME¶

xcb_configure_window - Configures window attributes

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <xcb/xproto.h>

REQUEST ARGUMENTS¶

conn

The XCB connection to X11.

window

The window to configure.

value_mask

Bitmask of attributes to change.

value_list

New values, corresponding to the attributes in value_mask. The order has to correspond to the order of possible value_mask bits. See the example.

DESCRIPTION¶

Configures a window's size, position, border width and stacking order.

RETURN VALUE¶

Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop.

If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, use xcb_configure_window_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.

ERRORS¶

xcb_match_error_t

You specified a Sibling without also specifying StackMode or the window is not actually a Sibling.

xcb_value_error_t

TODO: reasons?

xcb_window_error_t

The specified window does not exist. TODO: any other reason?

EXAMPLE¶

/*


 * Configures the given window to the left upper corner


 * with a size of 1024x768 pixels.


 *


 */
void my_example(xcb_connection_t *c, xcb_window_t window) {


    uint16_t mask = 0;


    mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_X;


    mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_Y;


    mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_WIDTH;


    mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_HEIGHT;


    const uint32_t values[] = {


        0,    /* x */


        0,    /* y */


        1024, /* width */


        768   /* height */


    };


    xcb_configure_window(c, window, mask, values);


    xcb_flush(c);
}
