xcb_xvmc_destroy_context(3)

💅 xcb_xvmc_destroy_context — bestie edition

okay so this is a page from the XCB Requests manual, part of libxcb. It's giving "niche X11 XVM-C context teardown" energy, and honestly? iconic of it. Let's get into it. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

xcb_xvmc_destroy_context — and bestie, the original manpage literally leaves the description blank here. No cap. We're working with an empty vibe on this one, so let's just vibe with the function name itself: it destroys an XvMC context. That's the whole teaser. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

First things first, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <xcb/xvmc.h>

🌸 Request function 🌸

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_xvmc_destroy_context(xcb_connection_t *conn,
       xcb_xvmc_context_t context_id);

periodt. That's the whole signature. Look at her go. 💖

---

✨ REQUEST ARGUMENTS ✨

• conn — the XCB connection to X11. Your lil pipeline to the X server, your main character line of communication. 🫶
• context_id — and the original manpage says, and I quote, TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED. 💀 so yeah. Nobody wrote this part yet. It's a mystery. An enigma. A little gift-wrapped unknown. We respect the ambiguity fr fr.

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Sooo... the original has nothing here. Empty. Void. The description section is just vibes and silence. 🙈 I'm not gonna make up behavior that isn't documented, because that would be lying to you and that's not the friendship we have. What we know: it's a destroy request, it takes a context_id, and the name says the rest. That's it. That's the tea. 🍓

---

✨ RETURN VALUE ✨

She returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. 💅

And here's the important bit, bestie: any errors (if there even are any) have to be handled in the event loop. You don't just get them handed to you. That's the deal.

If you'd rather handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, then use xcb_xvmc_destroy_context_checked — that's your checked version, your "actually tell me if something went wrong" version. See xcb-requests(3) for the deets. ⭐

---

✨ ERRORS ✨

Good news!! This request does never generate any errors. Not a single one. Zero. Zilch. She's clean, she's chill, she's not here to cause drama. 🌈

---

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

...nothing. The section is literally empty in the original. An empty SEE ALSO is lowkey its own aesthetic ngl. 🧚
