💅 NAME 💅

xcb_xfixes_create_pointer_barrier — bestie, it literally has no description yet, the manpage just trails off into the void, and honestly? iconic of it.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Okay so first you gotta pull in the header, no cap:

#include <xcb/xfixes.h>

🫶 Request function 🫶

xcb_void_cookie_t
       xcb_xfixes_create_pointer_barrier(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_xfixes_barrier_t barrier, xcb_window_t window, uint16_t x1,
       uint16_t y1, uint16_t x2, uint16_t y2, uint32_t directions,
       uint16_t num_devices, const uint16_t *devices);

She takes a lot of arguments. Ten of them. Slay, I guess. 🎀

🦋 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • conn — your XCB connection to X11, the group chat you're posting all this into. 💜
  • barrier — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. The docs simply did not show up to class. 🙈
  • window — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • x1 — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • y1 — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • x2 — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • y2 — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • directions — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • num_devices — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • devices — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
Not me listing nine whole arguments that are all "TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED." 💀 That's the whole vibe. We keep it real: the manpage really does just say that, and I'm not out here making stuff up about what they do. iykyk.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

There is literally no description. The section exists and then it's just... silence. Main character energy, honestly — no explanation, no context, just presence. 🧚

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

She hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t. ✨ Any errors (if any even happen) have to be handled over in the event loop, bestie — that's the deal.

But if you'd rather deal with errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, use xcb_xfixes_create_pointer_barrier_checked. Go check xcb-requests(3) for the details, fr fr.

🔥 ERRORS 🔥

Not a single error. This request does never generate any errors. Periodt. 💅

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Nothing here. The section is empty. It's giving minimalist. It's giving "we forgor." 🎀

Okay that's the whole page, babes! 💖 This was X Version 11, libxcb 1.17.0 — and remember: every TODO above is straight from the source, I'm just the messenger with better nails. Byeeee ✨🦋💅
