/**
* SECTION:gdkdevicemanager
* @Short_description: Functions for handling input devices
* @Title: GdkDeviceManager
* @See_also: #GdkDevice, #GdkEvent
*
* In addition to a single pointer and keyboard for user interface input,
* GDK contains support for a variety of input devices, including graphics
* tablets, touchscreens and multiple pointers/keyboards interacting
* simultaneously with the user interface. Such input devices often have
* additional features, such as sub-pixel positioning information and
* additional device-dependent information.
*
* In order to query the device hierarchy and be aware of changes in the
* device hierarchy (such as virtual devices being created or removed, or
* physical devices being plugged or unplugged), GDK provides
* #GdkDeviceManager.
*
* By default, and if the platform supports it, GDK is aware of multiple
* keyboard/pointer pairs and multitouch devices. This behavior can be
* changed by calling gdk_disable_multidevice() before gdk_display_open().
* There should rarely be a need to do that though, since GDK defaults
* to a compatibility mode in which it will emit just one enter/leave
* event pair for all devices on a window. To enable per-device
* enter/leave events and other multi-pointer interaction features,
* gdk_window_set_support_multidevice() must be called on
* #GdkWindows (or gtk_widget_set_support_multidevice() on widgets).
* window. See the gdk_window_set_support_multidevice() documentation
* for more information.
*
* On X11, multi-device support is implemented through XInput 2.
* Unless gdk_disable_multidevice() is called, the XInput 2
* #GdkDeviceManager implementation will be used as the input source.
* Otherwise either the core or XInput 1 implementations will be used.
*
* For simple applications that dont have any special interest in
* input devices, the so-called “client pointer”
* provides a reasonable approximation to a simple setup with a single
* pointer and keyboard. The device that has been set as the client
* pointer can be accessed via gdk_device_manager_get_client_pointer().
*
* Conceptually, in multidevice mode there are 2 device types. Virtual
* devices (or master devices) are represented by the pointer cursors
* and keyboard foci that are seen on the screen. Physical devices (or
* slave devices) represent the hardware that is controlling the virtual
* devices, and thus have no visible cursor on the screen.
*
* Virtual devices are always paired, so there is a keyboard device for every
* pointer device. Associations between devices may be inspected through
* gdk_device_get_associated_device().
*
* There may be several virtual devices, and several physical devices could
* be controlling each of these virtual devices. Physical devices may also
* be “floating”, which means they are not attached to any virtual device.

*
* By default, GDK will automatically listen for events coming from all
* master devices, setting the #GdkDevice for all events coming from input
* devices. Events containing device information are #GDK_MOTION_NOTIFY,
* #GDK_BUTTON_PRESS, #GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE, #GDK_SCROLL, #GDK_KEY_PRESS, #GDK_KEY_RELEASE,
* #GDK_ENTER_NOTIFY, #GDK_LEAVE_NOTIFY, #GDK_FOCUS_CHANGE,
* #GDK_PROXIMITY_IN, #GDK_PROXIMITY_OUT, #GDK_DRAG_ENTER, #GDK_DRAG_LEAVE,
* #GDK_DRAG_MOTION, #GDK_DRAG_STATUS, #GDK_DROP_START, #GDK_DROP_FINISHED
* and #GDK_GRAB_BROKEN. When dealing with an event on a master device,
* it is possible to get the source (slave) device that the event originated
* from via gdk_event_get_source_device().
*
* On a standard session, all physical devices are connected by default to
* the "Virtual Core Pointer/Keyboard" master devices, hence routing all events
* through these. This behavior is only modified by device grabs, where the
* slave device is temporarily detached for as long as the grab is held, and
* more permanently by user modifications to the device hierarchy.
*
* On certain application specific setups, it may make sense
* to detach a physical device from its master pointer, and mapping it to
* an specific window. This can be achieved by the combination of
* gdk_device_grab() and gdk_device_set_mode().
*
* In order to listen for events coming from devices
* other than a virtual device, gdk_window_set_device_events() must be
* called. Generally, this function can be used to modify the event mask
* for any given device.
*
* Input devices may also provide additional information besides X/Y.
* For example, graphics tablets may also provide pressure and X/Y tilt
* information. This information is device-dependent, and may be
* queried through gdk_device_get_axis(). In multidevice mode, virtual
* devices will change axes in order to always represent the physical
* device that is routing events through it. Whenever the physical device
* changes, the #GdkDevice:n-axes property will be notified, and
* gdk_device_list_axes() will return the new device axes.
*
* Devices may also have associated “keys” or
* macro buttons. Such keys can be globally set to map into normal X
* keyboard events. The mapping is set using gdk_device_set_key().
*
* In GTK+ 3.20, a new #GdkSeat object has been introduced that
* supersedes #GdkDeviceManager and should be preferred in newly
* written code.
