💖 xcb_xfixes_create_region_from_gc(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the XCB Requests corner of the manual, where the manual name is xcb_xfixes_cr...egion_from_gc(3) and yes it really does get truncated like that, the terminal said "no more room, girl" and gave up 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

xcb_xfixes_create_region_from_gc — literally just the name, no description, the manpage left us on read 💀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the include you need, no cap:

#include <xcb/xfixes.h>

🌸 Request function 🌸

xcb_void_cookie_t
       xcb_xfixes_create_region_from_gc(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_xfixes_region_t region, xcb_gcontext_t gc);

that's the whole signature, character for character, don't @ me 💅

✨ REQUEST ARGUMENTS ✨

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11. it's giving "the plug", the whole vibe runs through this 🦋
  • region — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. bestie the docs simply did not show up 😭 not my fault, not yours, it's a mystery
  • gc — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. same energy, same void, we know nothing 🙈

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

genuinely empty. the section exists, the words do not. iconic behaviour honestly, it's giving minimalism 👑

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

it hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t. so if errors happen, they're not gonna jump out at you right here — you have to go handle them in the event loop, that's the deal ✨

if you'd rather catch errors directly with xcb_request_check, then use xcb_xfixes_create_region_from_gc_checked instead. peek at xcb-requests(3) for the details, it's the receipt 🧾

✨ ERRORS ✨

this request does never generate any errors. periodt. zero drama, zero mess, she's chill 🌈

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

nothing listed here. empty. a beautiful little blank space 🌸

✨ AUTHOR ✨

and that's the whole page, bestie — X Version 11, libxcb 1.17.0, xcb_xfixes_cr...egion_from_gc(3), all wrapped up with a lil bow 🎀 slay, go forth and create those regions 🦋✨💖
