wayland::zwp_t...t_manager_v3_t(3) β Wayland++ manual, bestie edition β¨
Okay so this is a page from the Wayland++ manual, and no cap, it's a whole vibe. We're talking zwp_text_input_manager_v3_t and all the inherited proxy_t goodies that come with it. Sit down, grab a strawberry drink π, and let's get into it.
β¨ NAME β¨
wayland::zwp_text_input_manager_v3_t β the text input manager, periodt. π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
#include <wayland-client-protocol-unstable.hpp>
Lowkey important: this bad boy inherits wayland::proxy_t. So everything proxy_t can do, she can do too. Main character energy fr fr. π

π Member Enumeration Documentation π
π§ enum class wayland::proxy_t::wrapper_type [strong], [inherited]
Underlying wl_proxy type and properties of a proxy_t that affect construction, destruction, and event handling. Basically the "what kind of girl is this wrapper" enum. π
π Enumerator
standardβ C pointer is a standard type compatible withwl_proxy*. Events are dispatched and it is destructed when theproxy_tis destructed. User data is set. Your basic textbook icon. β¨displayβ C pointer is awl_display*. No events are dispatched,wl_display_disconnectis called when theproxy_tis destructed. User data is set. She's a little different, okay.foreignβ C pointer is a standard type compatible withwl_proxy*, but another library owns it and it should not be touched in a way that could affect the operation of the other library. No events are dispatched,wl_proxy_destroyis not called when theproxy_tis destructed, user data is not touched. Consequently, there is no reference counting for theproxy_t. Lifetime of such wrappers should preferably be short to minimize the chance that the owning library decides to destroy thewl_proxy. π Like, don't get attached.proxy_wrapperβ C pointer is awl_proxy*that was constructed withwl_proxy_create_wrapper. No events are dispatched,wl_proxy_wrapper_destroyis called when theproxy_tis destroyed. Reference counting is active. A reference to theproxy_tcreating this proxy wrapper is held to extend its lifetime until after the proxy wrapper is destroyed. π

π₯ wl_proxy * wayland::proxy_t::c_ptr () const [inherited]
Get a pointer to the underlying C struct.
Returns β The underlying wl_proxy wrapped by this proxy_t if it exists, otherwise an exception is thrown. π Yes, thrown, so handle her gently.
πΈ std::string wayland::proxy_t::get_class () const [inherited]
Get the interface name (class) of a proxy object.
Returns β The interface name of the object associated with the proxy.
β uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_id () const [inherited]
Get the id of a proxy object.
Returns β The id the object associated with the proxy.
π¦ zwp_text_input_v3_t zwp_text_input_manager_v3_t::get_text_input (seat_t const & seat)
create a new text input object β¨
Parameters
- seat
Creates a new text-input object for a given seat. She's your seat's personal text input bestie now. π«Ά
Defined at line 8608 of file wayland-client-protocol-unstable.cpp. π
π uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_version () const [inherited]
Get the protocol object version of a proxy object. Gets the protocol object version of a proxy object, or 0 if the proxy was created with unversioned API.
A returned value of 0 means that no version information is available, so the caller must make safe assumptions about the object's real version. Ngl, that's a red flag, so be careful. π
display_t will always return version 0.
Returns β The protocol object version of the proxy or 0.
π wrapper_type wayland::proxy_t::get_wrapper_type () const [inline], [inherited]
Get the type of a proxy object.
Defined at line 303 of file wayland-client.hpp. π
π wayland::proxy_t::operator bool () const [inherited]
Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.
Returns β true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty.
π§ bool wayland::proxy_t::operator!= (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
Check whether two wrappers refer to different objects.
π bool wayland::proxy_t::operator== (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
Check whether two wrappers refer to the same object.
π bool wayland::proxy_t::proxy_has_object () const [inherited]
Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.
Returns β true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty.
π void wayland::proxy_t::proxy_release () [inherited]
Release the wrapped object (if any), making this an empty wrapper. Note that display_t instances cannot be released this way. Attempts to do so are ignored. π
Like, she said no.
Examples
foreign_display.cpp.
π void wayland::proxy_t::set_queue (event_queue_t queue) [inherited]
Assign a proxy to an event queue.
Parameters
- queue β The event queue that will handle this proxy
Assign proxy to event queue. Events coming from proxy will be queued in queue instead of the display's main queue.
See also: display_t::dispatch_queue().
Examples
proxy_wrapper.cpp.
