<!-- ##### FUNCTION gdk_init ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Initializes the GDK library and connects to the X server.
|
|
If initialization fails, a warning message is output and the application
|
|
terminates with a call to <literal>exit(1)</literal>.
|

GTK+ initializes GDK in gtk_init() and so this function is not usually needed
|
|
by GTK+ applications.
|

</para>
|
|
|

@argc: the number of command line arguments.

@argv: the array of command line arguments.

success.

<!-- ##### FUNCTION gdk_set_locale ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Initializes the support for internationalization by calling the <function>setlocale()</function>
|
|
system call. This function is called by gtk_set_locale() and so GTK+
|
|
applications should use that instead.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The locale to use is determined by the <envar>LANG</envar> environment variable,
|
|
so to run an application in a certain locale you can do something like this:
|
|
<informalexample>
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
export LANG="fr"
|
|
... run application ...
|
|
</programlisting>
|
|
</informalexample>
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If the locale is not supported by X then it is reset to the standard "C"
|
|
locale.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
@void:
|
|
@Returns: the resulting locale.

<para>
|
|
Gets the program class. Unless the program class has explicitly
|
|
been set with gdk_set_program_class() or with the <option>--class</option>
|
|
commandline option, the default value is the program name (determined
|
|
with g_get_prgname()) with the first character converted to uppercase.

@void:

@Returns: the program class.

<!-- ##### FUNCTION gdk_set_program_class ##### -->
|

<para>
|

Sets the program class. The X11 backend uses the program class to set

the class name part of the <literal>WM_CLASS</literal> property on
|
|
toplevel windows; see the ICCCM.

<!-- ##### FUNCTION gdk_get_display ##### -->

<para>

Gets the name of the display, which usually comes from the <envar>DISPLAY</envar>
|
|
environment variable or the <option>--display</option> command line option.
|
|
</para>
|
|

@void:

@Returns: the name of the display.

<!-- ##### FUNCTION gdk_flush ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Flushes the X output buffer and waits until all requests have been processed
|
|
by the server. This is rarely needed by applications. It's main use is for
|
|
trapping X errors with gdk_error_trap_push() and gdk_error_trap_pop().

<!-- ##### FUNCTION gdk_pointer_grab ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Grabs the pointer (usually a mouse) so that all events are passed to this
|
|
application until the pointer is ungrabbed with gdk_pointer_ungrab(), or
|
|
the grab window becomes unviewable.
|
|
This overrides any previous pointer grab by this client.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Pointer grabs are used for operations which need complete control over mouse
|
|
events, even if the mouse leaves the application.
|
|
For example in GTK+ it is used for Drag and Drop, for dragging the handle in
|
|
the #GtkHPaned and #GtkVPaned widgets, and for resizing columns in #GtkCList
|
|
widgets.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note that if the event mask of an X window has selected both button press and
|
|
button release events, then a button press event will cause an automatic
|
|
pointer grab until the button is released.
|
|
X does this automatically since most applications expect to receive button
|
|
press and release events in pairs.
|
|
It is equivalent to a pointer grab on the window with @owner_events set to
|
|
%TRUE.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If you set up anything at the time you take the grab that needs to be cleaned
|
|
up when the grab ends, you should handle the #GdkEventGrabBroken events that
|
|
are emitted when the grab ends unvoluntarily.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
@window: the #GdkWindow which will own the grab (the grab window).
|
|
@owner_events: if %FALSE then all pointer events are reported with respect to
|
|
@window and are only reported if selected by @event_mask. If %TRUE then pointer
|
|
events for this application are reported as normal, but pointer events outside
|
|
this application are reported with respect to @window and only if selected by
|
|
@event_mask. In either mode, unreported events are discarded.
|
|
@event_mask: specifies the event mask, which is used in accordance with
|
|
@owner_events. Note that only pointer events (i.e. button and motion events)
|
|
may be selected.
|
|
@confine_to: If non-%NULL, the pointer will be confined to this
|
|
window during the grab. If the pointer is outside @confine_to, it will
|
|
automatically be moved to the closest edge of @confine_to and enter
|
|
and leave events will be generated as necessary.
|
|
@cursor: the cursor to display while the grab is active. If this is %NULL then
|
|
the normal cursors are used for @window and its descendants, and the cursor
|
|
for @window is used for all other windows.
|
|
@time_: the timestamp of the event which led to this pointer grab. This usually
|
|
comes from a #GdkEventButton struct, though %GDK_CURRENT_TIME can be used if
|
|
the time isn't known.
|
|
@Returns: %GDK_GRAB_SUCCESS if the grab was successful.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<!-- ##### ENUM GdkGrabStatus ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Returned by gdk_pointer_grab() and gdk_keyboard_grab() to indicate
|
|
success or the reason for the failure of the grab attempt.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
@GDK_GRAB_SUCCESS: the resource was successfully grabbed.
|
|
@GDK_GRAB_ALREADY_GRABBED: the resource is actively grabbed by another client.
|
|
@GDK_GRAB_INVALID_TIME: the resource was grabbed more recently than the
|
|
specified time.
|
|
@GDK_GRAB_NOT_VIEWABLE: the grab window or the @confine_to window are not
|
|
viewable.
|
|
@GDK_GRAB_FROZEN: the resource is frozen by an active grab of another client.

Grabs the keyboard so that all events are passed to this

@window: the #GdkWindow which will own the grab (the grab window).

@owner_events: if %FALSE then all keyboard events are reported with respect to
|

@window. If %TRUE then keyboard events for this application are reported as

|
normal, but keyboard events outside this application are reported with respect
|
|
to @window. Both key press and key release events are always reported,
|
|
independant of the event mask set by the application.
|
|
@time_: a timestamp from a #GdkEvent, or %GDK_CURRENT_TIME if no timestamp is
|

available.
