✨ NAME ✨

xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping — bestie... the description slot is literally empty 💀 the manpage just leaves a lil dash hanging there with nothing after it. Iconic of it, honestly.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

First things first, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <xcb/xinput.h>

🎀 Request function

xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_cookie_t
       xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       uint8_t device_id, uint8_t map_size, const uint8_t *map);

🦋 Reply datastructure

typedef struct xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_reply_t {
    uint8_t  response_type;
    uint8_t  xi_reply_type;
    uint16_t sequence;
    uint32_t length;
    uint8_t  status;
    uint8_t  pad0[23];
} xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_reply_t;

💜 Reply function

xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_reply_t
       *xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_reply(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_cookie_t cookie,
       xcb_generic_error_t **e);

🍓 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🍓

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11, your lil hotline to the server 💖
  • device_id — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. yeah bestie, they left it blank 🙈
  • map_size — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. also blank, we love a mystery ✨
  • map — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. blank blank blank, the trio of unknown 💀

🌈 REPLY FIELDS 🌈

  • response_type — the type of this reply, and in this case it's XCB_INPUT_SET_DEVICE_BUTTON_MAPPING. this same field also lives inside xcb_generic_reply_t, so you can use it to tell your replies apart from each other 👑
  • sequence — the sequence number of the last request the X11 server processed, fr fr
  • length — how long the reply is, in words (and a word here = 4 bytes, no cap)
  • xi_reply_type — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. mystery field, we don't know her 🫶
  • status — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. also unknown, also slaying in silence 💅

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

literally nothing here. the DESCRIPTION section is empty, bestie. not a single word. the void ate it. 😭

🧚 RETURN VALUE 🧚

You get back an xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_cookie_t. errors? those get handled when you call the reply function xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_reply.

If you'd rather deal with errors in the event loop instead, use xcb_input_set_device_button_mapping_unchecked. peep xcb-requests(3) for the deets 💜

💀 ERRORS 💀

This request does never generate any errors. zero. none. clean record, main character energy 🔥

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

nothing listed here either — the SEE ALSO section is just vibes and silence. 🌸
