X Input Device Extension Library

Some of the input extension requests divide input devices into classes based on their functionality. This is intended to allow new classes of input devices to be defined at a later time without changing the semantics of these functions. The following input device classes are currently defined:

Additional classes may be added in the future. Functions that support multiple input classes, such as the XListInputDevices function that lists all available input devices, organize the data they return by input class. Client programs that use these functions should not access data unless it matches a class defined at the time those clients were compiled. In this way, new classes can be added without forcing existing clients that use these functions to be recompiled.

These functions are provided to change which physical device is used as the X pointer or X keyboard.

These functions change the X keyboard or X pointer device and generate an XChangeDeviceNotify event and a MappingNotify event. The specified device becomes the new X keyboard or X pointer device. The location of the core device does not change as a result of this request.

These requests fail and return AlreadyGrabbed if either the specified device or the core device it would replace are grabbed by some other client. They fail and return GrabFrozen if either device is frozen by the active grab of another client.

These requests fail with a BadDevice error if the specified device is invalid, has not previously been opened via XOpenDevice , or is not supported as a core device by the server implementation.

Once the device has successfully replaced one of the core devices, it is treated as a core device until it is in turn replaced by another ChangeDevice request or until the server terminates. The termination of the client that changed the device will not cause it to change back. Attempts to use the XCloseDevice request to close the new core device will fail with a BadDevice error.

To change which physical device is used as the X keyboard, use the XChangeKeyboardDevice function. The specified device must support input class Keys (as reported in the ListInputDevices request) or the request will fail with a BadMatch error.

If no error occurs, XChangeKeyboardDevice returns Success . A ChangeDeviceNotify event with the request field set to NewKeyboard is sent to all clients selecting that event. A MappingNotify event with the request field set to MappingKeyboard is sent to all clients. The requested device becomes the X keyboard, and the old keyboard becomes available as an extension input device. The focus state of the new keyboard is the same as the focus state of the old X keyboard.

XChangeKeyboardDevice can generate AlreadyGrabbed , BadDevice , BadMatch , and GrabFrozen errors.

To change which physical device is used as the X pointer, use the XChangePointerDevice function. The specified device must support input class Valuators (as reported in the XListInputDevices request) and report at least two axes of motion, or the request will fail with a BadMatch error. If the specified device reports more than two axes, the two specified in the xaxis and yaxis arguments will be used. Data from other valuators on the device will be ignored.

If the specified device reports absolute positional information, and the server implementation does not allow such a device to be used as the X pointer, the request will fail with a BadDevice error.

If no error occurs, XChangePointerDevice returns Success . A ChangeDeviceNotify event with the request field set to NewPointer is sent to all clients selecting that event. A MappingNotify event with the request field set to MappingPointer is sent to all clients. The requested device becomes the X pointer, and the old pointer becomes available as an extension input device.

XChangePointerDevice can generate AlreadyGrabbed , BadDevice , BadMatch , and GrabFrozen errors.

Implementation of the input extension requires an extension of the meaning of event synchronization for the core grab requests. This is necessary in order to allow window managers to freeze all input devices with a single request.

The core grab requests require a pointer_mode and keyboard_mode argument. The meaning of these modes is changed by the input extension. For the XGrabPointer and XGrabButton requests, pointer_mode controls synchronization of the pointer device, and keyboard_mode controls the synchronization of all other input devices. For the XGrabKeyboard and XGrabKey requests, pointer_mode controls the synchronization of all input devices, except the X keyboard, while keyboard_mode controls the synchronization of the keyboard. When using one of the core grab requests, the synchronization of extension devices is controlled by the mode specified for the device not being grabbed.

Active grabs of extension devices are supported via the XGrabDevice function in the same way that core devices are grabbed using the core XGrabKeyboard function, except that an extension input device is passed as a function parameter. The XUngrabDevice function allows a previous active grab for an extension device to be released.

Passive grabs of buttons and keys on extension devices are supported via the XGrabDeviceButton and XGrabDeviceKey functions. These passive grabs are released via the XUngrabDeviceKey and XUngrabDeviceButton functions.

To grab an extension device, use the XGrabDevice function. The device must have previously been opened using the XOpenDevice function.

XGrabDevice actively grabs an extension input device and generates DeviceFocusIn and DeviceFocusOut events. Further input events from this device are reported only to the grabbing client. This function overrides any previous active grab by this client for this device.

The event_list parameter is a pointer to a list of event classes. This list indicates which events the client wishes to receive while the grab is active. If owner_events is False , input events from this device are reported with respect to grab_window and are reported only if specified in event_list. If owner_events is True , then if a generated event would normally be reported to this client, it is reported normally. Otherwise, the event is reported with respect to the grab_window and is only reported if specified in event_list.

The this_device_mode argument controls the further processing of events from this device, and the other_device_mode argument controls the further processing of input events from all other devices.

XGrabDevice fails on the following conditions:

If a grabbed device is closed by a client while an active grab by that client is in effect, that active grab will be released. Any passive grabs established by that client will be released. If the device is frozen only by an active grab of the requesting client, it is thawed.

XGrabDevice can generate BadClass , BadDevice , BadValue , and BadWindow errors.

To release a grab of an extension device, use the XUngrabDevice function.

XUngrabDevice allows a client to release an extension input device and any queued events if this client has it grabbed from either XGrabDevice or XGrabDeviceKey . If any other devices are frozen by the grab, XUngrabDevice thaws them. This function does not release the device and any queued events if the specified time is earlier than the last-device-grab time or is later than the current X server time. It also generates DeviceFocusIn and DeviceFocusOut events. The X server automatically performs an XUngrabDevice if the event window for an active device grab becomes not viewable or if the client terminates without releasing the grab.

XUngrabDevice can generate BadDevice errors.

To passively grab a single key on an extension device, use XGrabDeviceKey . That device must have previously been opened using the XOpenDevice function, or the request will fail with a BadDevice error. If the specified device does not support input class Keys , the request will fail with a BadMatch error.

XGrabDeviceKey is analogous to the core XGrabKey function. It creates an explicit passive grab for a key on an extension device. The XGrabDeviceKey function establishes a passive grab on a device. Consequently, in the future,

The interpretation of the remaining arguments is as for XGrabDevice . The active grab is terminated automatically when the logical state of the device has the specified key released (independent of the logical state of the modifier keys).

Note that the logical state of a device (as seen by means of the X protocol) may lag the physical state if device event processing is frozen.

A modifier of AnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible modifier combinations (including the combination of no modifiers). It is not required that all modifiers specified have currently assigned keycodes. A key of AnyKey is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible keycodes. Otherwise, the key must be in the range specified by min_keycode and max_keycode in the information returned by the XListInputDevices function. If it is not within that range, XGrabDeviceKey generates a BadValue error.

XGrabDeviceKey generates a BadAccess error if some other client has issued a XGrabDeviceKey with the same device and key combination on the same window. When using AnyModifier or AnyKey , the request fails completely and the X server generates a BadAccess error, and no grabs are established if there is a conflicting grab for any combination.

XGrabDeviceKey returns Success upon successful completion of the request.

XGrabDeviceKey can generate BadAccess , BadClass , BadDevice , BadMatch , BadValue , and BadWindow errors.

To release a passive grab of a single key on an extension device, use XUngrabDeviceKey .

XUngrabDeviceKey is analogous to the core XUngrabKey function. It releases an explicit passive grab for a key on an extension input device.

XUngrabDeviceKey can generate BadAlloc , BadDevice , BadMatch , BadValue , and BadWindow errors.

To establish a passive grab for a single button on an extension device, use XGrabDeviceButton . The specified device must have previously been opened using the XOpenDevice function, or the request will fail with a BadDevice error. If the specified device does not support input class Buttons , the request will fail with a BadMatch error.

XGrabDeviceButton is analogous to the core XGrabButton function. It creates an explicit passive grab for a button on an extension input device. Because the server does not track extension devices, no cursor is specified with this request. For the same reason, there is no confine_to parameter. The device must have previously been opened using the XOpenDevice function.

The XGrabDeviceButton function establishes a passive grab on a device. Consequently, in the future,

The interpretation of the remaining arguments is as for XGrabDevice . The active grab is terminated automatically when logical state of the device has all buttons released (independent of the logical state of the modifier keys).

Note that the logical state of a device (as seen by means of the X protocol) may lag the physical state if device event processing is frozen.

A modifier of AnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible modifier combinations (including the combination of no modifiers). It is not required that all modifiers specified have currently assigned keycodes. A button of AnyButton is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible buttons. Otherwise, it is not required that the specified button be assigned to a physical button.

XGrabDeviceButton generates a BadAccess error if some other client has issued a XGrabDeviceButton with the same device and button combination on the same window. When using AnyModifier or AnyButton , the request fails completely and the X server generates a BadAccess error and no grabs are established if there is a conflicting grab for any combination.

XGrabDeviceButton can generate BadAccess , BadClass , BadDevice , BadMatch , BadValue , and BadWindow errors.

To release a passive grab of a button on an extension device, use XUngrabDeviceButton .

XUngrabDeviceButton is analogous to the core XUngrabButton function. It releases an explicit passive grab for a button on an extension device. That device must have previously been opened using the XOpenDevice function, or a BadDevice error will result.

A modifier of AnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible modifier combinations (including the combination of no modifiers).

XUngrabDeviceButton can generate BadAlloc , BadDevice , BadMatch , BadValue , and BadWindow errors.

To allow further events to be processed when a device has been frozen, use XAllowDeviceEvents .

XAllowDeviceEvents releases some queued events if the client has caused a device to freeze. It has no effect if the specified time is earlier than the last-grab time of the most recent active grab for the client and device, or if the specified time is later than the current X server time. The following describes the processing that occurs depending on what constant you pass to the event_mode argument:

AsyncThisDevice , SyncThisDevice , and ReplayThisDevice have no effect on the processing of events from the remaining devices. AsyncOtherDevices has no effect on the processing of events from the specified device. When the event_mode is SyncAll or AsyncAll , the device parameter is ignored.

It is possible for several grabs of different devices (by the same or different clients) to be active simultaneously. If a device is frozen on behalf of any grab, no event processing is performed for the device. It is possible for a single device to be frozen because of several grabs. In this case, the freeze must be released on behalf of each grab before events can again be processed.

XAllowDeviceEvents can generate BadDevice and BadValue errors.

The current focus window for an extension input device can be determined using the XGetDeviceFocus function. Extension devices are focused using the XSetDeviceFocus function in the same way that the keyboard is focused using the core XSetInputFocus function, except that a device ID is passed as a function parameter. One additional focus state, FollowKeyboard , is provided for extension devices.

To get the current focus state, revert state, and focus time of an extension device, use XGetDeviceFocus .

XGetDeviceFocus returns the focus state, the revert-to state, and the last-focus-time for an extension input device.

XGetDeviceFocus can generate BadDevice and BadMatch errors.

To set the focus of an extension device, use XSetDeviceFocus .

XSetDeviceFocus changes the focus for an extension input device and the last-focus-change-time. It has no effect if the specified time is earlier than the last-focus-change-time or is later than the current X server time. Otherwise, the last-focus-change-time is set to the specified time. This function causes the X server to generate DeviceFocusIn and DeviceFocusOut events.

The action taken by the server when this function is requested depends on the value of the focus argument:

The specified focus window must be viewable at the time XSetDeviceFocus is called. Otherwise, it generates a BadMatch error. If the focus window later becomes not viewable, the X server evaluates the revert_to argument to determine the new focus window.

When the focus reverts, the X server generates DeviceFocusIn and DeviceFocusOut events, but the last-focus-change time is not affected.

XSetDeviceFocus can generate BadDevice , BadMatch , BadValue , and BadWindow errors.

To determine the current feedback settings of an extension input device, use XGetFeedbackControl .

XGetFeedbackControl returns a list of FeedbackState structures that describe the feedbacks supported by the specified device. There is an XFeedbackState structure for each class of feedback. These are of variable length, but the first three members are common to all.

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
} XFeedbackState;

The common members are as follows:

Those feedbacks equivalent to those supported by the core keyboard are reported in class KbdFeedback using the XKbdFeedbackState structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int click;
     int percent;
     int pitch;
     int duration;
     int led_mask;
     int global_auto_repeat;
     char auto_repeats[32];
} XKbdFeedbackState;

The additional members of the XKbdFeedbackState structure report the current state of the feedback:

Those feedbacks equivalent to those supported by the core pointer are reported in class PtrFeedback using the XPtrFeedbackState structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int accelNum;
     int accelDenom;
     int threshold;
} XPtrFeedbackState;

The additional members of the XPtrFeedbackState structure report the current state of the feedback:

Integer feedbacks are those capable of displaying integer numbers and reported via the XIntegerFeedbackState structure. The minimum and maximum values that they can display are reported.

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int resolution;
     int minVal;
     int maxVal;
} XIntegerFeedbackState;

The additional members of the XIntegerFeedbackState structure report the capabilities of the feedback:

String feedbacks are those that can display character information and are reported via the XStringFeedbackState structure. Clients set these feedbacks by passing a list of KeySyms to be displayed. The XGetFeedbackControl function returns the set of key symbols that the feedback can display, as well as the maximum number of symbols that can be displayed. The XStringFeedbackState structure is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int max_symbols;
     int  num_syms_supported;
     KeySym *syms_supported;
} XStringFeedbackState;

The additional members of the XStringFeedbackState structure report the capabilities of the feedback:

Bell feedbacks are those that can generate a sound and are reported via the XBellFeedbackState structure. Some implementations may support a bell as part of a KbdFeedback feedback. Class BellFeedback is provided for implementations that do not choose to do so and for devices that support multiple feedbacks that can produce sound. The meaning of the members is the same as that of the corresponding fields in the XKbdFeedbackState structure.

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int percent;
     int pitch;
     int duration;
} XBellFeedbackState;

Led feedbacks are those that can generate a light and are reported via the XLedFeedbackState structure. Up to 32 lights per feedback are supported. Each bit in led_mask corresponds to one supported light, and the corresponding bit in led_values indicates whether that light is currently on (1) or off (0). Some implementations may support leds as part of a KbdFeedback feedback. Class LedFeedback is provided for implementations that do not choose to do so and for devices that support multiple led feedbacks.

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     Mask led_values;
     Mask led_mask;
} XLedFeedbackState;

XGetFeedbackControl can generate BadDevice and BadMatch errors.

To free the information returned by the XGetFeedbackControl function, use XFreeFeedbackList .

XFreeFeedbackList frees the list of feedback control information.

To change the settings of a feedback on an extension device, use XChangeFeedbackControl . This function modifies the current control values of the specified feedback using information passed in the appropriate XFeedbackControl structure for the feedback. Which values are modified depends on the valuemask passed.

XChangeFeedbackControl controls the device characteristics described by the XFeedbackControl structure. There is an XFeedbackControl structure for each class of feedback. These are of variable length, but the first three members are common to all and are as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
} XFeedbackControl;

Feedback class KbdFeedback controls feedbacks equivalent to those provided by the core keyboard using the KbdFeedbackControl structure, which is defined as follows:.

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int click;
     int percent;
     int pitch;
     int duration;
     int led_mask;
     int led_value;
     int key;
     int auto_repeat_mode;
} XKbdFeedbackControl;

This class controls the device characteristics described by the XKbdFeedbackControl structure. These include the key_click_percent, global_auto_repeat, and individual key auto-repeat. Valid modes are AutoRepeatModeOn , AutoRepeatModeOff , and AutoRepeatModeDefault .

Valid masks are as follows:

#define   DvKeyClickPercent           (1><<0)
#define   DvPercent                   (1><<0)
#define   DvPitch                     (1><<0)
#define   DvDuration                  (1><<0)
#define   DvLed                       (1><<0)
#define   DvLedMode                   (1><<0)
#define   DvKey                       (1><<0)
#define   DvAutoRepeatMode            (1><<0)

Feedback class PtrFeedback controls feedbacks equivalent to those provided by the core pointer using the PtrFeedbackControl structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int accelNum;
     int accelDenom;
     int threshold;
} XPtrFeedbackControl;

Which values are modified depends on the valuemask passed.

Valid masks are as follows:

#define    DvAccelnum        (1L<<0)
#define    DvAccelDenom      (1L<<1)
#define    DvThreshold       (1L<<2)

The acceleration, expressed as a fraction, is a multiplier for movement. For example, specifying 3/1 means that the device moves three times as fast as normal. The fraction may be rounded arbitrarily by the X server. Acceleration takes effect only if the device moves more than threshold pixels at once and applies only to the amount beyond the value in the threshold argument. Setting a value to -1 restores the default. The values of the accelNumerator and threshold fields must be nonzero for the pointer values to be set. Otherwise, the parameters will be unchanged. Negative values generate a BadValue error, as does a zero value for the accelDenominator field.

This request fails with a BadMatch error if the specified device is not currently reporting relative motion. If a device that is capable of reporting both relative and absolute motion has its mode changed from Relative to Absolute by an XSetDeviceMode request, valuator control values will be ignored by the server while the device is in that mode.

Feedback class IntegerFeedback controls integer feedbacks displayed on input devices and are reported via the IntegerFeedbackControl structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int int_to_display;
} XIntegerFeedbackControl;

Valid masks are as follows:

#define   DvInteger           (1L<<0)

Feedback class StringFeedback controls string feedbacks displayed on input devices and reported via the StringFeedbackControl structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int num_keysyms;
     KeySym *syms_to_display;
} XStringFeedbackControl;

Valid masks are as follows:

#define   DvString           (1L<<0)

Feedback class BellFeedback controls a bell on an input device and is reported via the BellFeedbackControl structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int percent;
     int pitch;
     int duration;
} XBellFeedbackControl;

Valid masks are as follows:

#define   DvPercent                   (1L<<1)
#define   DvPitch                     (1L<<2)
#define   DvDuration                  (1L<<3)

Feedback class LedFeedback controls lights on an input device and are reported via the LedFeedbackControl structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID class;
     int length;
     XID id;
     int led_mask;
     int led_values;
} XLedFeedbackControl;

Valid masks are as follows:

#define   DvLed                       (1L<<4)
#define   DvLedMode                   (1L<<5)

XChangeFeedbackControl can generate BadDevice , BadFeedBack , BadMatch , and BadValue errors.

To ring a bell on an extension input device, use XDeviceBell .

XDeviceBell is analogous to the core XBell function. It rings the specified bell on the specified input device feedback, using the specified volume. The specified volume is relative to the base volume for the feedback. If the value for the percent argument is not in the range -100 to 100 inclusive, a BadValue error results. The volume at which the bell rings when the percent argument is nonnegative is:

       base - [(base * percent) / 100] + percent

The volume at which the bell rings when the percent argument is negative is:

       base + [(base * percent) / 100]

To change the base volume of the bell, use XChangeFeedbackControl .

XDeviceBell can generate BadDevice and BadValue errors.

To get the key mapping of an extension device that supports input class Keys , use XGetDeviceKeyMapping .

XGetDeviceKeyMapping is analogous to the core XGetKeyboardMapping function. It returns the symbols for the specified number of keycodes for the specified extension device.

XGetDeviceKeyMapping returns the symbols for the specified number of keycodes for the specified extension device, starting with the specified keycode. The first_keycode_wanted must be greater than or equal to min-keycode as returned by the XListInputDevices request (else a BadValue error results). The following value:

first_keycode_wanted + keycode_count - 1

must be less than or equal to max-keycode as returned by the XListInputDevices request (else a BadValue error results).

The number of elements in the keysyms list is as follows:

keycode_count * keysyms_per_keycode_return

And KEYSYM number N (counting from zero) for keycode K has an index (counting from zero), in keysyms, of the following:

(K - first_keycode_wanted) * keysyms_per_keycode_return + N

The keysyms_per_keycode_return value is chosen arbitrarily by the server to be large enough to report all requested symbols. A special KEYSYM value of NoSymbol is used to fill in unused elements for individual keycodes.

To free the data returned by this function, use XFree.

If the specified device has not first been opened by this client via XOpenDevice , this request will fail with a BadDevice error. If that device does not support input class Keys , this request will fail with a BadMatch error.

XGetDeviceKeyMapping can generate BadDevice , BadMatch , and BadValue errors.

To change the keyboard mapping of an extension device that supports input class Keys , use XChangeDeviceKeyMapping .

XChangeDeviceKeyMapping is analogous to the core XChangeKeyboardMapping function. It defines the symbols for the specified number of keycodes for the specified extension keyboard device.

If the specified device has not first been opened by this client via XOpenDevice , this request will fail with a BadDevice error. If the specified device does not support input class Keys , this request will fail with a BadMatch error.

The number of elements in the keysyms list must be a multiple of keysyms_per_keycode. Otherwise, XChangeDeviceKeyMapping generates a BadLength error. The specified first_keycode must be greater than or equal to the min_keycode value returned by the ListInputDevices request, or this request will fail with a BadValue error. In addition, if the following expression is not less than the max_keycode value returned by the ListInputDevices request, the request will fail with a BadValue error:

       first_keycode + (num_codes / keysyms_per_keycode) - 1

XChangeDeviceKeyMapping can generate BadAlloc , BadDevice , BadMatch , and BadValue errors.

To obtain the keycodes that are used as modifiers on an extension device that supports input class Keys , use XGetDeviceModifierMapping .

XGetDeviceModifierMapping is analogous to the core XGetModifierMapping function. The XGetDeviceModifierMapping function returns a newly created XModifierKeymap structure that contains the keys being used as modifiers for the specified device. The structure should be freed after use with XFreeModifierMapping . If only zero values appear in the set for any modifier, that modifier is disabled.

XGetDeviceModifierMapping can generate BadDevice and BadMatch errors.

To set which keycodes are to be used as modifiers for an extension device, use XSetDeviceModifierMapping .

XSetDeviceModifierMapping is analogous to the core XSetModifierMapping function. The XSetDeviceModifierMapping function specifies the keycodes of the keys, if any, that are to be used as modifiers. A zero value means that no key should be used. No two arguments can have the same nonzero keycode value. Otherwise, XSetDeviceModifierMapping generates a BadValue error. There are eight modifiers, and the modifiermap member of the XModifierKeymap structure contains eight sets of max_keypermod keycodes, one for each modifier in the order Shift , Lock , Control , Mod1 , Mod2 , Mod3 , Mod4 , and Mod5 . Only nonzero keycodes have meaning in each set, and zero keycodes are ignored. In addition, all of the nonzero keycodes must be in the range specified by min_keycode and max_keycode reported by the XListInputDevices function. Otherwise, XSetModifierMapping generates a BadValue error. No keycode may appear twice in the entire map. Otherwise, it generates a BadValue error.

A X server can impose restrictions on how modifiers can be changed, for example, if certain keys do not generate up transitions in hardware or if multiple modifier keys are not supported. If some such restriction is violated, the status reply is MappingFailed , and none of the modifiers are changed. If the new keycodes specified for a modifier differ from those currently defined and any (current or new) keys for that modifier are in the logically down state, the status reply is MappingBusy , and none of the modifiers are changed. XSetModifierMapping generates a DeviceMappingNotify event on a MappingSuccess status.

XSetDeviceModifierMapping can generate BadAlloc , BadDevice , BadMatch , and BadValue errors.

To set the mapping of the buttons on an extension device, use XSetDeviceButtonMapping .

XSetDeviceButtonMapping sets the mapping of the buttons on an extension device. If it succeeds, the X server generates a DeviceMappingNotify event, and XSetDeviceButtonMapping returns MappingSuccess . Elements of the list are indexed starting from one. The length of the list must be the same as XGetDeviceButtonMapping would return, or a BadValue error results. The index is a button number, and the element of the list defines the effective number. A zero element disables a button, and elements are not restricted in value by the number of physical buttons. However, no two elements can have the same nonzero value, or a BadValue error results. If any of the buttons to be altered are logically in the down state, XSetDeviceButtonMapping returns MappingBusy , and the mapping is not changed.

XSetDeviceButtonMapping can generate BadDevice , BadMatch , and BadValue errors.

To get the button mapping, use XGetDeviceButtonMapping .

XGetDeviceButtonMapping returns the current mapping of the specified extension device. Elements of the list are indexed starting from one. XGetDeviceButtonMapping returns the number of physical buttons actually on the pointer. The nominal mapping for the buttons is the identity mapping: map[i]=i. The nmap argument specifies the length of the array where the button mapping is returned, and only the first nmap elements are returned in map_return.

XGetDeviceButtonMapping can generate BadDevice and BadMatch errors.

To obtain information that describes the state of the keys, buttons, and valuators of an extension device, use XQueryDeviceState .

XQueryDeviceState returns a pointer to an XDeviceState structure, which points to a list of structures that describe the state of the keys, buttons, and valuators on the device:

typedef struct {
     XID device_id;
     int num_classes;
     XInputClass *data;
} XDeviceState;

The structures are of variable length, but the first two members are common to all and are as follows:

typedef struct {
     unsigned char class;
     unsigned char length;
} XInputClass;

The class member contains a class identifier. This identifier can be compared with constants defined in the file < X11/extensions/XI.h >. Currently defined constants are: KeyClass , ButtonClass , and ValuatorClass .

The length member contains the length of the structure and can be used by clients to traverse the list.

The XValuatorState structure describes the current state of the valuators on the device. The num_valuators member contains the number of valuators on the device. The mode member is a mask whose bits report the data mode and other state information for the device. The following bits are currently defined:

     DeviceMode     1 << 0     Relative = 0, Absolute = 1
     ProximityState     1 << 1     InProximity = 0, OutOfProximity = 1

The valuators member contains a pointer to an array of integers that describe the current value of the valuators. If the mode is Relative , these values are undefined.

typedef struct {
     unsigned char class;
     unsigned char length;
     unsigned char num_valuators;
     unsigned char mode;
     int *valuators;
} XValuatorState;

The XKeyState structure describes the current state of the keys on the device. Byte N (from 0) contains the bits for key 8N to 8N + 7 with the least significant bit in the byte representing key 8N.

typedef struct {
     unsigned char class;
     unsigned char length;
     short num_keys;
     char keys[32];
} XKeyState;

The XButtonState structure describes the current state of the buttons on the device. Byte N (from 0) contains the bits for button 8N to 8N + 7 with the least significant bit in the byte representing button 8N.

typedef struct {
     unsigned char class;
     unsigned char length;
     short num_buttons;
     char buttons[32];
} XButtonState;

XQueryDeviceState can generate BadDevice errors.

To free the data returned by this function, use XFreeDeviceState .

XFreeDeviceState frees the device state data.

Event types are integer numbers that a client can use to determine what kind of event it has received. The client compares the type field of the event structure with known event types to make this determination.

The core input event types are constants and are defined in the header file < X11/X.h >. Extension event types are not constants. Instead, they are dynamically allocated by the extension's request to the X server when the extension is initialized. Because of this, extension event types must be obtained by the client from the server.

The client program determines the event type for an extension event by using the information returned by the XOpenDevice request. This type can then be used for comparison with the type field of events received by the client.

Extension events propagate up the window hierarchy in the same manner as core events. If a window is not interested in an extension event, it usually propagates to the closest ancestor that is interested, unless the dont_propagate list prohibits it. Grabs of extension devices may alter the set of windows that receive a particular extension event.

The following table lists the event category and its associated event type or types.

Event classes are integer numbers that are used in the same way as the core event masks. They are used by a client program to indicate to the server which events that client program wishes to receive.

The core input event masks are constants and are defined in the header file < X11/X.h >. Extension event classes are not constants. Instead, they are dynamically allocated by the extension's request to the X server when the extension is initialized. Because of this, extension event classes must be obtained by the client from the server.

The event class for an extension event and device is obtained from information returned by the XOpenDevice function. This class can then be used in an XSelectExtensionEvent request to ask that events of that type from that device be sent to the client program.

For DeviceButtonPress events, the client may specify whether or not an implicit passive grab should be done when the button is pressed. If the client wants to guarantee that it will receive a DeviceButtonRelease event for each DeviceButtonPress event it receives, it should specify the DeviceButtonPressGrab class in addition to the DeviceButtonPress class. This restricts the client in that only one client at a time may request DeviceButtonPress events from the same device and window if any client specifies this class.

If any client has specified the DeviceButtonPressGrab class, any requests by any other client that specify the same device and window and specify either DeviceButtonPress or DeviceButtonPressGrab will cause an Access error to be generated.

If only the DeviceButtonPress class is specified, no implicit passive grab will be done when a button is pressed on the device. Multiple clients may use this class to specify the same device and window combination.

The client may also select DeviceMotion events only when a button is down. It does this by specifying the event classes DeviceButton1Motion through DeviceButton5Motion . An input device will support only as many button motion classes as it has buttons.

Each extension event type has a corresponding structure declared in < X11/extensions/XInput.h >. All event structures have the following common members:

Extension event structures report the current position of the X pointer. In addition, if the device reports motion data and is reporting absolute data, the current value of any valuators the device contains is also reported.

XGetExtensionVersion allows a client to determine whether a server supports the desired version of the input extension.

The XExtensionVersion structure returns information about the version of the extension supported by the server and is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     Bool present;   
     short major_version;
     short minor_version;
} XExtensionVersion;

The major and minor versions can be compared with constants defined in the header file < X11/extensions/XI.h >. Each version is a superset of the previous versions.

You should use XFree. to free the data returned by this function.

A client program that wishes to access a specific device must first determine whether that device is connected to the X server. This is done through the XListInputDevices function, which will return a list of all devices that can be opened by the X server. The client program can use one of the names defined in the < X11/extensions/XI.h > header file in an XInternAtom request to determine the device type of the desired device. This type can then be compared with the device types returned by the XListInputDevices request.

XListInputDevices allows a client to determine which devices are available for X input and information about those devices. An array of XDeviceInfo structures is returned, with one element in the array for each device. The number of devices is returned in the ndevices argument.

The X pointer device and X keyboard device are reported, as well as all available extension input devices. The use member of the XDeviceInfo structure specifies the current use of the device. If the value of this member is IsXPointer , the device is the X pointer device. If the value is IsXKeyboard , the device is the X keyboard device. If the value is IsXExtensionDevice , the device is available for use as an extension input device.

Each XDeviceInfo entry contains a pointer to a list of structures that describe the characteristics of each class of input supported by that device. The num_classes member contains the number of entries in that list.

If the device supports input class Valuators , one of the structures pointed to by the XDeviceInfo structure will be an XValuatorInfo structure. The axes member of that structure contains the address of an array of XAxisInfo structures. There is one element in this array for each axis of motion reported by the device. The number of elements in this array is contained in the num_axes element of the XValuatorInfo structure. The size of the motion buffer for the device is reported in the motion_buffer member of the XValuatorInfo structure.

The XDeviceInfo structure is defined as follows:

typedef struct _XDeviceInfo {
     XID id;        
     Atom type;
     char *name;
     int num_classes;
     int use;
     XAnyClassPtr inputclassinfo;
} XDeviceInfo;

The structures pointed to by the XDeviceInfo structure are defined as follows:

typedef struct _XKeyInfo {
     XID class;
     int length;
     unsigned short min_keycode;
     unsigned short max_keycode;
     unsigned short num_keys;
} XKeyInfo;

typedef struct _XButtonInfo {
     XID class;
     int length;
     short num_buttons;
} XButtonInfo;

typedef struct _XValuatorInfo {
     XID class;
     int length;
     unsigned char num_axes;
     unsigned char mode;
     unsigned long motion_buffer;
     XAxisInfoPtr axes;
} XValuatorInfo;

The XAxisInfo structure pointed to by the XValuatorInfo structure is defined as follows:

typedef struct _XAxisInfo {
     int resolution;
     int min_value;
     int max_value;
} XAxisInfo;

The following atom names are defined in the < X11/extensions/XI.h > header file.

MOUSE     QUADRATURE
TABLET     SPACEBALL
KEYBOARD     DATAGLOVE
TOUCHSCREEN     EYETRACKER
TOUCHPAD     CURSORKEYS
BUTTONBOX     FOOTMOUSE
BARCODE     ID_MODULE
KNOB_BOX     ONE_KNOB
TRACKBALL     NINE_KNOB\s+1

These names can be used in an XInternAtom request to return an atom that can be used for comparison with the type member of the XDeviceInfo structure.

XListInputDevices returns NULL if there are no input devices to list.

To free the data returned by XListInputDevices , use XFreeDeviceList .

XFreeDeviceList frees the list of input device information.

Each client program that wishes to access an extension device must request that the server open that device by calling the XOpenDevice function.

XOpenDevice opens the device for the requesting client and, on success, returns an XDevice structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID device_id;
     int num_classes;
     XInputClassInfo *classes;
} XDevice;

The XDevice structure contains a pointer to an array of XInputClassInfo structures. Each element in that array contains information about events of a particular input class supported by the input device.

The XInputClassInfo structure is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     unsigned char input_class;
     unsigned char event_type_base;
} XInputClassInfo;

A client program can determine the event type and event class for a given event by using macros defined by the input extension. The name of the macro corresponds to the desired event, and the macro is passed the structure that describes the device from which input is desired, for example:

     DeviceKeyPress(XDevice *device, event_type, event_class)

The macro will fill in the values of the event class to be used in an XSelectExtensionEvent request to select the event and the event type to be used in comparing with the event types of events received via XNextEvent.

XOpenDevice can generate BadDevice errors.

Before terminating, the client program should request that the server close the device by calling the XCloseDevice function.

XCloseDevice closes the device for the requesting client and frees the associated XDevice structure.

A client may open the same extension device more than once. Requests after the first successful one return an additional XDevice structure with the same information as the first, but otherwise have no effect. A single XCloseDevice request will terminate that client's access to the device.

Closing a device releases any active or passive grabs the requesting client has established. If the device is frozen only by an active grab of the requesting client, any queued events are released.

If a client program terminates without closing a device, the server will automatically close that device on behalf of the client. This does not affect any other clients that may be accessing that device.

XCloseDevice can generate BadDevice errors.

Some devices are capable of reporting either relative or absolute motion data. To change the mode of a device from relative to absolute, use XSetDeviceMode .

XSetDeviceMode allows a client to request the server to change the mode of a device that is capable of reporting either absolute positional data or relative motion data. If the device is invalid or if the client has not previously requested that the server open the device via an XOpenDevice request, this request will fail with a BadDevice error. If the device does not support input class Valuators or if it is not capable of reporting the specified mode, the request will fail with a BadMatch error.

This request will fail and return DeviceBusy if another client has already opened the device and requested a different mode.

XSetDeviceMode can generate BadDevice , BadMatch , BadMode , and DeviceBusy errors.

Some devices that report absolute positional data can be initialized to a starting value. Devices that are capable of reporting relative motion or absolute positional data may require that their valuators be initialized to a starting value after the mode of the device is changed to Absolute .

To initialize the valuators on such a device, use XSetDeviceValuators .

XSetDeviceValuators initializes the specified valuators on the specified extension input device. Valuators are numbered beginning with zero. Only the valuators in the range specified by first_valuator and num_valuators are set. A BadValue error results if the number of valuators supported by the device is less than the following expression:

     first_valuator + num_valuators

If the request succeeds, Success is returned. If the specified device is grabbed by some other client, the request will fail and a status of AlreadyGrabbed will be returned.

XSetDeviceValuators can generate BadDevice , BadLength , BadMatch , and BadValue errors.

Some input devices support various configuration controls that can be queried or changed by clients. The set of supported controls will vary from one input device to another. Requests to manipulate these controls will fail if either the target X server or the target input device does not support the requested device control.

Each device control has a unique identifier. Information passed with each device control varies in length and is mapped by data structures unique to that device control.

To query a device control, use XGetDeviceControl .

XGetDeviceControl returns the current state of the specified device control. If the target X server does not support that device control, a BadValue error is returned. If the specified device does not support that device control, a BadMatch error is returned.

If the request is successful, a pointer to a generic XDeviceState structure is returned. The information returned varies according to the specified control and is mapped by a structure appropriate for that control. The first two members are common to all device controls and are defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID control;
     int length;
} XDeviceState;
\fP

The control may be compared to constants defined in the file < X11/extensions/XI.h >. Currently defined device controls include DEVICE_RESOLUTION.

The information returned for the DEVICE_RESOLUTION control is defined in the XDeviceResolutionState structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID control;
     int length;
     int num_valuators;
     int *resolutions;
     int *min_resolutions;
     int *max_resolutions;
} XDeviceResolutionState;

This device control returns a list of valuators and the range of valid resolutions allowed for each. Valuators are numbered beginning with zero (0). Resolutions for all valuators on the device are returned. For each valuator i on the device, resolutions[i] returns the current setting of the resolution, min_resolutions[i] returns the minimum valid setting, and max_resolutions[i] returns the maximum valid setting.

When this control is specified, XGetDeviceControl fails with a BadMatch error if the specified device has no valuators.

XGetDeviceControl can generate BadMatch and BadValue errors.

Some input devices support various configuration controls that can be changed by clients. Typically, this would be done to initialize the device to a known state or configuration. The set of supported controls will vary from one input device to another. Requests to manipulate these controls will fail if either the target X server or the target input device does not support the requested device control. Setting the device control will also fail if the target input device is grabbed by another client or is open by another client and has been set to a conflicting state.

Each device control has a unique identifier. Information passed with each device control varies in length and is mapped by data structures unique to that device control.

To change a device control, use XChangeDeviceControl .

XChangeDeviceControl changes the current state of the specified device control. If the target X server does not support that device control, a BadValue error is returned. If the specified device does not support that device control, a BadMatch error is returned. If another client has the target device grabbed, a status of AlreadyGrabbed is returned. If another client has the device open and has set it to a conflicting state, a status of DeviceBusy is returned. If the request fails for any reason, the device control will not be changed.

If the request is successful, the device control will be changed and a status of Success is returned. The information passed varies according to the specified control and is mapped by a structure appropriate for that control. The first two members are common to all device controls:

typedef struct {
     XID control;
     int length;
} XDeviceControl;

The control may be set using constants defined in the < X11/extensions/XI.h > header file. Currently defined device controls include DEVICE_RESOLUTION.

The information that can be changed by the DEVICE_RESOLUTION control is defined in the XDeviceResolutionControl structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     XID control;
     int length;
     int first_valuator;
     int num_valuators;
     int *resolutions;
} XDeviceResolutionControl;

This device control changes the resolution of the specified valuators on the specified extension input device. Valuators are numbered beginning with zero. Only the valuators in the range specified by first_valuator and num_valuators are set. A value of -1 in the resolutions list indicates that the resolution for this valuator is not to be changed. The num_valuators member specifies the number of valuators in the resolutions list.

When this control is specified, XChangeDeviceControl fails with a BadMatch error if the specified device has no valuators. If a resolution is specified that is not within the range of valid values (as returned by XGetDeviceControl ), XChangeDeviceControl fails with a BadValue error. A BadValue error results if the number of valuators supported by the device is less than the following expression:

     first_valuator + num_valuators, 

XChangeDeviceControl can generate BadMatch and BadValue errors.

To select device input events, use XSelectExtensionEvent . The parameters passed are a pointer to a list of classes that define the desired event types and devices, a count of the number of elements in the list, and the ID of the window from which events are desired.

XSelectExtensionEvent requests the server to send events that match the events and devices described by the event list and that come from the requested window. The elements of the XEventClass array are the event_class values obtained by invoking a macro with the pointer to an XDevice structure returned by the XOpenDevice request. For example, the DeviceKeyPress macro would return the XEventClass for DeviceKeyPress events from the specified device if it were invoked in the following form:

     DeviceKeyPress (XDevice *device, event_type, event_class)

Macros are defined for the following event classes:

DeviceKeyPress
DeviceKeyRelease
DeviceButtonPress
DeviceButtonRelease
DeviceMotionNotify
DeviceFocusIn
DeviceFocusOut
ProximityIn
ProximityOut
DeviceStateNotify
DeviceMappingNotify
ChangeDeviceNotify
DevicePointerMotionHint
DeviceButton1Motion 
DeviceButton2Motion
DeviceButton3Motion, 
DeviceButton4Motion
DeviceButton5Motion
DeviceButtonMotion,
DeviceOwnerGrabButton
DeviceButtonPressGrab

To get the next available event from within a client program, use the core XNextEvent function. This returns the next event whether it came from a core device or an extension device.

Succeeding XSelectExtensionEvent requests using event classes for the same device as was specified on a previous request will replace the previous set of selected events from that device with the new set.

XSelectExtensionEvent can generate BadAccess , BadClass , BadLength , and BadWindow errors.

To determine which extension events are currently selected from a given window, use XGetSelectedExtensionEvents .

XGetSelectedExtensionEvents returns pointers to two event class arrays. One lists the extension events selected by this client from the specified window. The other lists the extension events selected by all clients from the specified window. This information is analogous to that returned in your_event_mask and all_event_masks of the XWindowAttributes structure when an XGetWindowAttributes request is made. To free the two arrays returned by this function, use XFree.

XGetSelectedExtensionEvents can generate BadWindow errors.

Extension events propagate up the window hierarchy in the same manner as core events. If a window is not interested in an extension event, it usually propagates to the closest ancestor that is interested, unless the dont_propagate list prohibits it. Grabs of extension devices may alter the set of windows that receive a particular extension event.

Client programs may control event propagation through the use of the following two functions: XChangeDeviceDontPropagateList and XGetDeviceDontPropagateList .

XChangeDeviceDontPropagateList adds an event to or deletes an event from the do_not_propagate list of extension events for the specified window. There is one list per window, and the list remains for the life of the window. The list is not altered if a client that changed the list terminates.

Suppression of event propagation is not allowed for all events. If a specified XEventClass is invalid because suppression of that event is not allowed, a BadClass error results.

XChangeDeviceDontPropagateList can generate BadClass , BadMode , and BadWindow errors.

XGetDeviceDontPropagateList allows a client to determine the do_not_propagate list of extension events for the specified window. It returns an array of XEventClass , each XEventClass representing a device/event type pair. To free the data returned by this function, use XFree.

XGetDeviceDontPropagateList can generate BadWindow errors.

To send an extension event to another client, use XSendExtensionEvent .

XSendExtensionEvent identifies the destination window, determines which clients should receive the specified event, and ignores any active grabs. It requires a list of XEventClass to be specified. These are obtained by opening an input device with the XOpenDevice request.

XSendExtensionEvent uses the window argument to identify the destination window as follows:

To determine which clients should receive the specified events, XSendExtensionEvent uses the propagate argument as follows:

The event in the XEvent structure must be one of the events defined by the input extension, so that the X server can correctly byte swap the contents as necessary. The contents of the event are otherwise unaltered and unchecked by the X server except to force send_event to True in the forwarded event and to set the sequence number in the event correctly.

XSendExtensionEvent returns zero if the conversion-to-wire protocol failed; otherwise, it returns nonzero.

XSendExtensionEvent can generate BadClass , BadDevice , BadValue , and BadWindow errors.

XGetDeviceMotionEvents returns all positions in the device's motion history buffer that fall between the specified start and stop times inclusive. If the start time is in the future or is later than the stop time, no positions are returned.

The return type for this function is an XDeviceTimeCoord structure, which is defined as follows:

typedef struct {
     Time time;
     unsigned int *data;
} XDeviceTimeCoord;

The data member is a pointer to an array of data items. Each item is of type int, and there is one data item per axis of motion reported by the device. The number of axes reported by the device is returned in the axis_count variable.

The value of the data items depends on the mode of the device. The mode is returned in the mode variable. If the mode is Absolute , the data items are the raw values generated by the device. These may be scaled by the client program using the maximum values that the device can generate for each axis of motion that it reports. The maximum value for each axis is reported in the max_val member of the XAxisInfo structure, which is part of the information returned by the XListInputDevices request.

If the mode is Relative , the data items are the relative values generated by the device. The client program must choose an initial position for the device and maintain a current position by accumulating these relative values.

Consecutive calls to XGetDeviceMotionEvents can return data of different modes, that is, if some client program has changed the mode of the device via an XSetDeviceMode request.

XGetDeviceMotionEvents can generate BadDevice and BadMatch errors.

To free the data returned by XGetDeviceMotionEvents , use XFreeDeviceMotionEvents .

XFreeDeviceMotionEvents frees the specified array of motion information. Appendix A
