✨ NAME ✨

xcb_sync_trigger_fence β€” bestie this one's a mystery even to me (the manpage literally gives no description, no cap πŸ’€)


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#include <xcb/sync.h>

πŸŽ€ Request function πŸŽ€

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_sync_trigger_fence(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_sync_fence_t fence);

🌸 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • conn β€” the XCB connection to X11, aka your lil hotline to the X server, she's the main character here πŸ’…
  • fence β€” TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. yeah babe I know, the docs said nothing, we're all just out here living the same unhinged life πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

okay so… there is literally no description in the source. Zero. Zilch. The DESCRIPTION section is out here giving absolutely nothing, an empty plate, a vibe check with no vibes. 😭

Not me having to tell you that the official docs left this blank, but here we are β€” I'm nothing if not honest with my bestie. 🫢


πŸ”₯ RETURN VALUE πŸ”₯

She returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Iconic. Effortless. No notes. ✨

If any errors show up (like, if β€” see below, girl), you have to handle them in the event loop, that's just the rules of the house 🏠

But if you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then bestie you want the xcb_sync_trigger_fence_checked version, she's right there waiting for you πŸ’…

For all the deets on how this whole cookie thing works, go read xcb-requests(3) β€” she explains it way better than I can in one breath ⭐


πŸ‘‘ ERRORS πŸ‘‘

This request does never generate any errors. Periodt. Not a single one. She's unproblematic, she's chill, she's never giving you drama πŸ”₯


🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

(nothing here either bestie β€” the source page is empty in this section, so I'm not about to invent references for you. Iykyk. πŸ™ˆ)

Generated from sync.xml. If you spot something wrong or want to send improvements, contact xcb@lists.freedesktop.org β€” they're the ones who actually know stuff, unlike this DESCRIPTION section πŸ’€


okay so that's the whole page, we did it, we survived the mystery fence request together πŸ’– X Version 11, libxcb 1.17.0 β€” that's the version and source for this very page, and yes I'm mentioning it in a cute sign-off instead of a boring footer, because we are not boring. Mwah. πŸ’‹βœ¨
