💖 xcb_glx_use_x_font — the XCB Requests girlies' page 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the XCB Requests manual, and it's all about xcb_glx_use_x_font. The name section is literally just a lil dash and nothing else — iconic, mysterious, no notes 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

First things first, you gotta pull in the header, no cap:

#include <xcb/glx.h>

🦋 Request function 🦋

and here's the function itself, fr fr:

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_glx_use_x_font(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_glx_context_tag_t context_tag, xcb_font_t font,
       uint32_t first, uint32_t count, uint32_t list_base);

🎀 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11. your lil hotline to the server, basically 🌸
  • context_tag — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. yeah. she's undocumented. we respect her privacy 🙈
  • font — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. mysterious font behavior, we simply don't know
  • first — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • count — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • list_base — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
not me listing five whole arguments and the manpage just says TODO for every single one 😭 the lore is genuinely incomplete bestie, I'm not making stuff up for you

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

...so the description section is empty. completely. blank. no vibes, no text, nothing. we move 💀✨

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

It returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. And listen — errors (if there are any) have to be handled in the event loop, okay? that's the whole situation, don't skip that part 🫶

If you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then you use xcb_glx_use_x_font_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details, periodt.

🌈 ERRORS 🌈

This request never generates any errors. literally zero. a peaceful queen. no error handling needed, she simply does not do drama 💖

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

The SEE ALSO section is empty, bestie. nothing to see here. move along 🧚

🍓 AUTHOR 🍓

Generated from glx.xml. If you got corrections and improvements, hit up xcb@lists.freedesktop.org — they're taking notes 📝

and that's the whole page! 🎀 this one came from X Version 11, specifically libxcb 1.17.0, and yeah, that's the xcb_glx_use_x_font(3) manual page — short, sweet, and lowkey full of TODOs. slay 💅💜
