💖 xcb_xfixes_hide_cursor — an XCB Requests page, section 3, bestie 💖

Okay so real talk, this page is from the XCB Requests manual set, section 3, and it's about xcb_xfixes_hide_cursor. It's a tiny little baby page and ngl some of it is literally blank in the source, and I'm not gonna invent lore that isn't there. So let's hold hands and go through every crumb. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

xcb_xfixes_hide_cursor —

Okay so the NAME line here is literally empty. No description, no nothing. It just says the function name and then vibes. 💀 I'm not gonna make something up, so that's the whole name section. Iconic of it, honestly.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <xcb/xfixes.h>

🌸 Request function 🌸

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_xfixes_hide_cursor(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_window_t window);

✨ REQUEST ARGUMENTS ✨

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11. Your lil hotline to the X server, periodt. 🔥
  • window — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 🫠 Yeah. That's what it says. The docs just have not caught up yet, and I refuse to gaslight you about it.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Bestie. There is nothing here. The DESCRIPTION section in the original is completely empty. No prose, no notes, no clues. Just a heading sitting there looking pretty. 💅 I'm not filling it in with guesses, because that would be lying to you and we don't do that here. 🌈

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

It hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t. Cute, void, but still a cookie. 🍪

Any errors (if any) have to be handled over in the event loop — that's just how the async girlies operate. 😌

But wait, if you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check, then what you actually want is xcb_xfixes_hide_cursor_checked. Same request, checked flavor. ✨

See xcb-requests(3) for the details on all that.

✨ ERRORS ✨

This request does never generate any errors. 🎀

Like, none. Zero. No error energy whatsoever. She simply does not miss. 👑

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

And... it's empty too. 😭 The SEE ALSO section in the original has nothing under it. No cross-references, no friends, no links. Just her, alone, thriving.

✨ AUTHOR ✨

Generated from xfixes.xml. 📄

Contact xcb@lists.freedesktop.org for corrections and improvements. (If you find out what window does, pls tell them, they'd love that. 🙈)

And that's the whole page, bestie — we got through it together. 🌸 This beauty comes to you from X Version 11, libxcb 1.17.0, and it's filed under xcb_xfixes_hide_cursor(3). Mwah. 💋 ✨
