okay so you're reading the Wayland++ manual, section 3, and the star of the show is wayland::zxdg_imported_v2_t πŸŽ€ this is the page for it, and yes it's a whole vibe. let's get into it.


✨ NAME ✨

wayland::zxdg_imported_v2_t β€” an imported surface handle 🫢

#include <wayland-client-protocol-unstable.hpp>

so iconic, it inherits wayland::proxy_t πŸ‘‘

🌈 Detailed Description 🌈

an imported surface handle πŸ’…

so like, an xdg_imported object represents an imported reference to a surface exported by some client. a client can use this interface to manipulate relationships between its own surfaces and the imported surface. that's the whole thing β€” no cap.

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. this is the lore 🧚

Enumerator

  • standard C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_proxy*. Events are dispatched and it is destructed when the proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.
  • display C pointer is a wl_display*. No events are dispatched, wl_display_disconnect is called when the proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.
  • foreign C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_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_destroy is not called when the proxy_t is destructed, user data is not touched. Consequently, there is no reference counting for the proxy_t. Lifetime of such wrappers should preferably be short to minimize the chance that the owning library decides to destroy the wl_proxy. 😭 (respect other people's objects, fr fr)
  • proxy_wrapper C pointer is a wl_proxy* that was constructed with wl_proxy_create_wrapper. No events are dispatched, wl_proxy_wrapper_destroy is called when the proxy_t is destroyed. Reference counting is active. A reference to the proxy_t creating this proxy wrapper is held to extend its lifetime until after the proxy wrapper is destroyed.

wl_proxy * wayland::proxy_t::c_ptr () const [inherited]

Get a pointer to the underlying C struct. it's giving "hand me the raw thing" ✨

Returns: The underlying wl_proxy wrapped by this proxy_t if it exists, otherwise an exception is thrown 😀

std::string wayland::proxy_t::get_class () const [inherited]

Get the interface name (class) of a proxy object. main character identification energy πŸ‘‘

Returns: The interface name of the object associated with the proxy

uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_id () const [inherited]

Get the id of a proxy object. every object gets its own little ID card πŸͺͺ

Returns: The id the object associated with the proxy

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. (yes bestie, guessing is on you πŸ’€)

display_t will always return version 0.

Returns: The protocol object version of the proxy or 0

wrapper_type wayland::proxy_t::get_wrapper_type () const [inline], [inherited]

Get the type of a proxy object. which flavour of proxy are we today πŸ“

defined at line 303 of wayland-client.hpp

std::function< void()> & zxdg_imported_v2_t::on_destroyed ()

the imported surface handle has been destroyed 🫠 The imported surface handle has been destroyed and any relationship set up has been invalidated. This may happen for various reasons, for example if the exported surface or the exported surface handle has been destroyed, if the handle used for importing was invalid.

wayland::proxy_t::operator bool () const [inherited]

Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object. vibe check on the wrapper itself πŸ¦‹

Returns: true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty

bool wayland::proxy_t::operator!= (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]

Check whether two wrappers refer to different objects. not the same, not the same πŸ™ˆ

bool wayland::proxy_t::operator== (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]

Check whether two wrappers refer to the same object. same object, same energy 🫢

bool wayland::proxy_t::proxy_has_object () const [inherited]

Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object. (yes it's the bool-operator's twin, they're matching πŸ‘―)

Returns: true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty

void wayland::proxy_t::proxy_release () [inherited]

Release the wrapped object (if any), making this an empty wrapper. 🎈

careful bestie β€” note that display_t instances cannot be released this way. attempts to do so are ignored. πŸ’€

Examples: foreign_display.cpp.

void zxdg_imported_v2_t::set_parent_of (surface_t const & surface)

set as the parent of some surface πŸ‘‘

Parameters: surface β€” the child surface

Set the imported surface as the parent of some surface of the client. The passed surface must be an xdg_toplevel equivalent, otherwise an invalid_surface protocol error is sent. ‼️ Calling this function sets up a surface to surface relation with the same stacking and positioning semantics as xdg_toplevel.set_parent.

void wayland::proxy_t::set_queue (event_queue_t queue) [inherited]

Assign a proxy to an event queue. sending it to a different group chat πŸ’Œ

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.
