Struct x11rb::xcb_ffi::XCBConnection

pub struct XCBConnection { /* private fields */ }

A connection to an X11 server.

This type wraps *mut xcb_connection_t that is provided by libxcb. It provides a rust interface to this C library.

Implementations

impl XCBConnection

pub fn connect( dpy_name: Option<&CStr> ) -> Result<(XCBConnection, usize), ConnectError>

Establish a new connection to an X11 server.

If a dpy_name is provided, it describes the display that should be connected to, for example 127.0.0.1:1. If no value is provided, the $DISPLAY environment variable is used.

pub unsafe fn from_raw_xcb_connection( ptr: *mut c_void, should_drop: bool ) -> Result<XCBConnection, ConnectError>

Create a connection wrapper for a raw libxcb xcb_connection_t.

xcb_disconnect is called on drop only if should_drop is true. If this function returns an Err() and should_drop was true, then xcb_disconnect was already called.

Safety

If should_drop is false, the connection must live longer than the returned XCBConnection. If should_drop is true, the returned XCBConnection will take the ownership of the connection.

pub fn has_error(&self) -> Option<ConnectionError>

Check if the underlying XCB connection is in an error state.

pub fn get_raw_xcb_connection(&self) -> *mut c_void

Get access to the raw libxcb xcb_connection_t.

The returned pointer is valid for as long as the original object was not dropped. No ownerhsip is transferred.
