💅 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 💅

• conn — your XCB connection to X11. it's the link-up, the group chat with the server, the whole vibe 💫
• window — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. yeah bestie, they left us on read on this one 🙈

---

🔥 REPLY FIELDS 🔥

• response_type — the type of this reply, and in this case it's XCB_RANDR_GET_PROVIDERS. this field is also present in the xcb_generic_reply_t, so you can use it to tell replies apart from each other. it's giving name tag at a party 🎀
• sequence — the sequence number of the last request processed by the X11 server. the receipt, basically 🧾
• length — the length of the reply, in words. and a word is 4 bytes, no cap ✨
• timestamp — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 📭
• num_providers — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 📭

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

…nothing here. the section exists and it's empty. the silence is deafening bestie 💀

---

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

Returns an xcb_randr_get_providers_cookie_t. errors have to be handled when you call the reply function xcb_randr_get_providers_reply. so like, don't just ghost the return value 👑

if you'd rather handle errors in the event loop instead, use xcb_randr_get_providers_unchecked. see xcb-requests(3) for details.

---

💀 ERRORS 💀

This request does never generate any errors. clean page, zero drama, we love to see it 🫶

---

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

…also empty. iconic behaviour honestly. the vibes are immaculate and the cross-references are nonexistent ✨
