✨ xcb_xfixes_query_version ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for xcb_xfixes_query_version, part of the XCB Requests crew (that's the X protocol binding for C, iykyk). Yes, the NAME line is genuinely just a lonely little dash with nothing after it — the original said so, and I refuse to make stuff up. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

xcb_xfixes_query_version — (the original leaves this blank, just a bare dash, no cap)

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

First, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <xcb/xfixes.h>

💖 Request function 💖

xcb_xfixes_query_version_cookie_t
       xcb_xfixes_query_version(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       uint32_t client_major_version, uint32_t client_minor_version);

💖 Reply datastructure 💖

typedef struct xcb_xfixes_query_version_reply_t {
    uint8_t  response_type;
    uint8_t  pad0;
    uint16_t sequence;
    uint32_t length;
    uint32_t major_version;
    uint32_t minor_version;
    uint8_t  pad1[16];
} xcb_xfixes_query_version_reply_t;

💖 Reply function 💖

xcb_xfixes_query_version_reply_t
       *xcb_xfixes_query_version_reply(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_xfixes_query_version_cookie_t cookie,
       xcb_generic_error_t **e);

🎀 REQUEST ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • conn — the XCB connection to X11. your little phone line to the server, basically 🫶
  • client_major_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. (the docs said what they said, I'm not inventing lore)
  • client_minor_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. (same energy, bestie)

⭐ REPLY FIELDS ⭐

  • response_type — the type of this reply, in this case XCB_XFIXES_QUERY_VERSION. this field is also chilling inside the xcb_generic_reply_t, and you can use it to tell replies apart from each other 👑
  • sequence — the sequence number of the last request processed by the X11 server. it's giving ✨receipts✨
  • length — the length of the reply, in words. and reminder: a word is 4 bytes here, okay? not like, a dictionary word 💀
  • major_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
  • minor_version — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

(the original page has literally nothing here — the section header shows up and then immediately dips. so there's nothing for me to tell you, and I'm not about to fabricate, periodt.)

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

Returns an xcb_xfixes_query_version_cookie_t. Errors have to be handled when calling the reply function xcb_xfixes_query_version_reply.

If you'd rather handle errors in the event loop instead, use xcb_xfixes_query_version_unchecked. See xcb-requests(3) for details. main character error-handling energy, honestly 🧚

🔥 ERRORS 🔥

This request does never generate any errors. iconic, flawless, no notes 💅

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

(nothing listed here in the original — the section is just vibes and empty space, so that's what you get.)

💖 AUTHOR 💖

Generated from xfixes.xml. Contact xcb@lists.freedesktop.org for corrections and improvements.

okay that's the whole thing, bestie!! every flag, every field, every TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. kept exactly where it was. slay 💅✨

This was brought to you by X Version 11 and libxcb 1.17.0 🦋💖
