xcb_set_input_focus(3) XCB Requests xcb_set_input_focus(3)
NAME
xcb_set_input_focus - Sets input focus
SYNOPSIS
#include <xcb/xproto.h>
Request function
xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_set_input_focus(xcb_connection_t *conn,
uint8_t revert_to, xcb_window_t focus, xcb_timestamp_t time);
REQUEST ARGUMENTS
conn The XCB connection to X11.
revert_to One of the following values:
XCB_INPUT_FOCUS_NONE
The focus reverts to XCB_NONE, so no window will
have the input focus.
XCB_INPUT_FOCUS_POINTER_ROOT
The focus reverts to XCB_POINTER_ROOT respectively.
When the focus reverts, FocusIn and FocusOut events
are generated, but the last-focus-change time is
not changed.
XCB_INPUT_FOCUS_PARENT
The focus reverts to the parent (or closest
viewable ancestor) and the new revert_to value is
XCB_INPUT_FOCUS_NONE.
XCB_INPUT_FOCUS_FOLLOW_KEYBOARD
NOT YET DOCUMENTED. Only relevant for the xinput
extension.
Specifies what happens when the focus window becomes
unviewable (if focus is neither XCB_NONE nor
XCB_POINTER_ROOT).
focus The window to focus. All keyboard events will be reported to
this window. The window must be viewable (TODO), or a
xcb_match_error_t occurs (TODO).
If focus is XCB_NONE (TODO), all keyboard events are
discarded until a new focus window is set.
If focus is XCB_POINTER_ROOT (TODO), focus is on the root
window of the screen on which the pointer is on currently.
time Timestamp to avoid race conditions when running X over the
network.
The special value XCB_CURRENT_TIME will be replaced with the
current server time.
DESCRIPTION
Changes the input focus and the last-focus-change time. If the
specified time is earlier than the current last-focus-change time, the
event loop.
If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead,
use xcb_set_input_focus_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.
ERRORS
xcb_match_error_t
The specified focus window is not viewable.
xcb_value_error_t
TODO: Reasons?
