xcb_composite_redirect_window - Man Page
Redirect the hierarchy starting at "window" to off-screen storage.
Synopsis
#include <xcb/composite.h>
Request function
xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_composite_redirect_window(xcb_connection_t *conn, xcb_window_t window, uint8_t update);
Request Arguments
- conn
The XCB connection to X11.
- window
The root of the hierarchy to redirect to off-screen storage.
- update
Whether contents are automatically mirrored to the parent window. If one client already specifies an update type of Manual, any attempt by another to specify a mode of Manual so will result in an Access error.
Description
The hierarchy starting at 'window' is directed to off-screen storage. When all clients enabling redirection terminate, the redirection will automatically be disabled.
The root window may not be redirected. Doing so results in a Match error.
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_composite_redirect_window_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.
Errors
This request does never generate any errors.
