✨ xcb_input_change_feedback_control ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the XCB Requests corner of the manual, where we talk about xcb_input_change_feedback_control 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

xcb_input_change_feedback_control — and that's... literally it. That's the whole name. The original page gives us nothing else here, no little blurb, nada. So we're working with vibes and a function signature, bestie. 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

first things first, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <xcb/xinput.h>

🦋 Request function 🦋

xcb_void_cookie_t
       xcb_input_change_feedback_control(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       uint32_t mask, uint8_t device_id, uint8_t feedback_id,
       xcb_input_feedback_ctl_t *feedback);

that's the whole thing, character for character, no cap. ✨

🌈 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🌈

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11. your little telephone line to the X server, basically. 📞
  • mask — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. yeah. the docs simply did not show up. not me being mad about it. 😭
  • device_id — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. same energy. 💀
  • feedback_id — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. the mystery continues, we love a cryptic icon. 🙈
  • feedback — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. that's a xcb_input_feedback_ctl_t * btw, in case you were wondering what type the mystery is. 👑

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so... this section is empty. like, empty empty. no description. the original page just moves on. we respect that. sometimes silence is the loudest statement. 🤐✨

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

it hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t, bestie. and because it's a void cookie, any errors (if there even are any) have to be handled over in the event loop. that's just how the void-cookie girlies operate. 🎀

if you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then you want the checked version: xcb_input_change_feedback_control_checked. 💅

and for the full tea on how any of this works, go read xcb-requests(3). 🫶

🔥 ERRORS 🔥

okay so the best news on this entire page:

This request does never generate any errors.

periodt. zero errors. she's unproblematic. she's giving peace of mind. 👑

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

this section is empty too. no cross-references listed. just vibes and open space. 🦋
