xcb_fill_poly(3)

✨ xcb_fill_poly ✨

ok bestie so this is a page from the XCB Requests section of the manual, it's xcb_fill_poly(3), and honestly? it's giving "polygon glow-up" 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

xcb_fill_poly — (and like… that's it, the description slot is literally empty, no cap 💀)

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

First things first, you gotta bring in the header, periodt:

#include <xcb/xproto.h>

Request function

here's the whole vibe, copy it exactly bestie:

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_fill_poly(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_drawable_t drawable, xcb_gcontext_t gc, uint8_t shape,
       uint8_t coordinate_mode, uint32_t points_len, const
       xcb_point_t *points);

---

🦋 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🦋

• conn — the XCB connection to X11. your lil hotline to the server, iykyk 🫶
• drawable — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. (the manpage really said "mystery ✨")
• gc — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. (also a mystery, bestie, we don't make the rules 😭)
• shape — it's one of these values, pick your fighter:
  • XCB_POLY_SHAPE_COMPLEX — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • XCB_POLY_SHAPE_NONCONVEX — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • XCB_POLY_SHAPE_CONVEX — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. (yeah this extra TODO is just… vibing here on its own. iconic behaviour honestly 🌈)
• coordinate_mode — also a pick-one situation:
  • XCB_COORD_MODE_ORIGIN — Treats all coordinates as relative to the origin.
  • XCB_COORD_MODE_PREVIOUS — Treats all coordinates after the first as relative to the previous coordinate.
  • TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. (another solo TODO, main character energy 💀)
• points_len — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• points — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

bestie… there is literally nothing here. the DESCRIPTION section is empty. it's giving silence. it's giving "we'll fill it in later". no tea, no shade, just an empty section. 🫠

---

🌟 RETURN VALUE 🌟

It hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t. If any errors pop off, you have to deal with them in the event loop, not right here, okay?

If you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then use xcb_fill_poly_checked instead. Peep xcb-requests(3) for the deets. 📚

---

🔥 ERRORS 🔥

This request does never generate any errors. periodt. zero drama, we love a low-maintenance request ✨

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

bestie this section is empty too 😭 nothing to see, nothing to also. it's a whole vibe of absence.

and that's the whole page! this was xcb_fill_poly(3) from X Version 11, libxcb 1.17.0, and the date line is blank so we're just gonna say sometime, whenever, no timestamp bestie 🎀 stay slaying with your polygons, mwah 💖✨
