xcb_glx_query_version(3)

✨ xcb_glx_query_version ✨

okay bestie, gather round 💖 this is xcb_glx_query_version(3), one of the XCB Requests girlies. It lives in the XCB crew and it's here to ask the X server like "hey babe, what GLX version are we working with?" 🦋

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

xcb_glx_query_version —

so like. the name is literally just the name and then a dash and then nothing. the description slot is empty. we're serving mystery 💅 the vibe is "she said she'd text back and didn't."

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <xcb/glx.h>

✨ Request function ✨

xcb_glx_query_version_cookie_t
       xcb_glx_query_version(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       uint32_t major_version, uint32_t minor_version);

🫶 Reply datastructure 🫶

typedef struct xcb_glx_query_version_reply_t {
    uint8_t  response_type;
    uint8_t  pad0;
    uint16_t sequence;
    uint32_t length;
    uint32_t major_version;
    uint32_t minor_version;
    uint8_t  pad1[16];
} xcb_glx_query_version_reply_t;

💜 Reply function 💜

xcb_glx_query_version_reply_t
       *xcb_glx_query_version_reply(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_glx_query_version_cookie_t cookie, xcb_generic_error_t **e);

like yes she's giving struct energy, she's giving cookie energy, she's giving pointer-to-reply-t energy. iconic. no notes. 👑

🌈 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🌈

• conn — the XCB connection to X11. your lil hotline to the server, basically. 📞
• major_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 😭 yeah babe the docs said "idk" and left.
• minor_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 🙈 same energy. two mysteries, one function.

---

💅 REPLY FIELDS 💅

• response_type — the type of this reply, which in this case is XCB_GLX_QUERY_VERSION. This field also lives in the xcb_generic_reply_t, so you can use it to tell replies apart from each other. it's the little name tag at the party 🎀
• sequence — the sequence number of the last request processed by the X11 server. it's the "which one was this again" receipt 🧾
• length — the length of the reply, in words. and yes bestie, a word is 4 bytes. periodt.
• major_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 💀
• minor_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 💀💀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

(blank. absolutely nothing here. the manpage really said "no thoughts, head empty" and moved on. respect the commitment to silence ✨)

---

🔥 RETURN VALUE 🔥

Returns an xcb_glx_query_version_cookie_t. 🍪

heads up bestie — errors do not show up here. you have to handle them when you call the reply function xcb_glx_query_version_reply. that's where the drama happens.

And if you'd rather handle your errors in the event loop instead? use xcb_glx_query_version_unchecked. See xcb-requests(3) for details. iykyk 🫶

🌸 ERRORS 🌸

okay so this is the good news section: This request does never generate any errors. she's a chill one. no drama, no red flags, we love that for her 😌✨
