✨ DMXForceWindowCreation(3) ✨

ok so bestie, you found the DMXForceWindowCreation page from the Library Functions Manual and honestly? it's a short one, but it slays. let's get into it πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

DMXForceWindowCreation β€” force immediate back-end window creation

like. the name literally tells you everything but we're gonna explain it anyway because that's what we do 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

#include <X11/extensions/dmxext.h>

Bool DMXForceWindowCreation(Display *dpy,
                            Window window);

so you gotta pull in that header first, no cap ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so picture this: when you're using the lazy window creation optimization, windows are not created on the back-end X servers until they are actually required. it's giving "we'll do it when we feel like it" energy 😭

DMXForceWindowCreation() says no babe, we're doing this now. it forces the immediate creation of the window requested. periodt πŸ’…


πŸ’– RETURN VALUE πŸ’–

DMXForceWindowCreation() returns True unless there is a protocol error.

heads up bestie β€” DMXForceWindowCreation() can generate BadWindow errors πŸ‘€ so keep an eye out for those.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈


and that's the whole page, you ate that πŸ“ go forth and force-create some windows, main character energy only πŸ‘‘

this lil gem comes to you from X Version 11, libdmx 1.1.5 β€” mwah, bye bestie πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€
