πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

xcb_xv_select_video_notify β€” okay bestie so the NAME section literally ends with a dash and nothing else. That's it. That's the whole vibe. The description never got written, no cap. We move anyway. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

First thing, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <xcb/xv.h>

Then the request function itself, looking all cute:

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_xv_select_video_notify(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_drawable_t drawable, uint8_t onoff);

πŸŽ€ REQUEST ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • conn β€” the XCB connection to X11. Your lil hotline to the server, your main character link-up. 🫢
  • drawable β€” TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. Literally nobody wrote this one down. It's giving mystery. πŸ•΅οΈβ™€οΈ
  • onoff β€” TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. Also undocumented. The lore is missing, bestie, we just don't know. πŸ™ˆ

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

So there's a DESCRIPTION heading... and then there's nothing under it. Empty. Void. A blank space where the lore should be. Not a single sentence, not a single crumb. 😭


🌸 RETURN VALUE 🌸

It hands you back an xcb_void_cookie_t. And the way that works is: any errors have to be handled over in the event loop, okay? Like, they don't come straight back to you, they show up later like a text you weren't expecting. πŸ“±

But if you're the kind of icon who wants to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then you use xcb_xv_select_video_notify_checked β€” yes there's a checked version, she's right there. Peep xcb-requests(3) for the details. ✨


πŸ’€ ERRORS πŸ’€

This request does never generate any errors.

Periodt. Zero errors. She's flawless, she does not miss. πŸ‘‘


🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Nothing here. No references, no friends, no linked pages. She stands alone, and honestly? Iconic behaviour. ⭐

And that's a wrap! This lil page came to you from X Version 11, libxcb 1.17.0 β€” that's the source and the version, mwah. πŸ’‹ Thanks for reading, ily, go write some XCB code, bye!! πŸ§šπŸ’–
