xcb_xv_put_still(3)

💅 xcb_xv_put_still — the XCB request girlies know

okay so bestie, welcome to xcb_xv_put_still, a page from the XCB Requests manual. Pull up a chair, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's get into it.

---

✨ NAME ✨

xcb_xv_put_still — (and yes, the original description line here is literally empty, no cap, it's just the name and a lil dash 💀)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

First things first, you gotta let the compiler know what's up:

#include <xcb/xv.h>

🎀 Request function

here's the whole function signature, character for character, don't you dare change a single one:

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_xv_put_still(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_xv_port_t port, xcb_drawable_t drawable, xcb_gcontext_t gc,
       int16_t vid_x, int16_t vid_y, uint16_t vid_w, uint16_t vid_h,
       int16_t drw_x, int16_t drw_y, uint16_t drw_w, uint16_t drw_h);

---

✨ REQUEST ARGUMENTS ✨

here's the cast of characters, main character energy only 🫶

• conn — the XCB connection to X11. your lil hotline to the X server, bestie.
• port — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. (the docs are giving "we'll get to it" 😭)
• drawable — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• gc — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• vid_x — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• vid_y — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• vid_w — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• vid_h — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• drw_x — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• drw_y — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• drw_w — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.
• drw_h — TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

not me listing every single one of these — yes, all twelve, in order, exactly as the original has them. the TODO energy is real but we respect it. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this section is, and I cannot stress this enough, empty in the original. nothing there. a whole vibe of silence. 🦋

---

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

So here's the tea: it hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t. ✨

Any errors? bestie, you gotta handle those in the event loop. that's the assignment, that's the rule.

But wait — if you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then use xcb_xv_put_still_checked. slay. the details live in xcb-requests(3), go check it out 👑

---

✨ ERRORS ✨

Good news, queen: this request does never generate any errors. 🔥 zero. none. iconic behaviour honestly.

---

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

this section is empty in the original, bestie — no cross-references listed at all. a moment of silence 🕊️

and that's the whole page, bestie 💖 this was X Version 11, libxcb 1.17.0, xcb_xv_put_still(3) — periodt, go forth and write some XCB code ✨👑💅
