XSetEventQueueOwner(3)          XLIB FUNCTIONS          XSetEventQueueOwner(3)


NAME

       XSetEventQueueOwner - set event queue owner on a shared Xlib/XCB
       connection


SYNTAX

        #include <X11/Xlib-xcb.h>

       void XSetEventQueueOwner(Display *dpy, enum XEventQueueOwner owner);


ARGUMENTS

       dpy       Specifies the connection to the X server.

       owner     Specifies the event queue ownership:

                 XlibOwnsEventQueue (default)
                        Xlib owns the event queue.  Use the Xlib event-
                        handling functions.  Do not call the XCB event-
                        handling functions.

                 XCBOwnsEventQueue
                        XCB owns the event queue.  Use the XCB event-handling
                        functions.  Do not call the Xlib event-handling
                        functions.


DESCRIPTION

       While a client using Xlib/XCB can issue requests and handle their
       replies or errors with either Xlib or XCB, only one can own and handle
       the event queue.  By default, Xlib must own the event queue, for
       compatibility with legacy Xlib clients.  Clients can call
       XSetEventQueueOwner immediately after XOpenDisplay to let XCB own the
       event queue instead.  Clients may not call XSetEventQueueOwner at any
       other time, as this will potentially lose responses.
