NAME

X11::AtomConstants -- predefined X11 atoms

SYNOPSIS

use X11::AtomConstants;
$X->ChangeProperty($window,
                   X11::AtomConstants::WM_NAME,  # property
                   X11::AtomConstants::PIXMAP,   # type
                   8,                            # format
                   'Replace',
                   'My Window Title');

DESCRIPTION

This is the X11 pre-defined atoms as Perl constants. For example "PIXMAP" is 20, the PIXMAP atom.

my $atom_id = X11::AtomConstants::PIXMAP;  # $atom_id is 20
my $name = $X->GetAtomName($atom_id);      # $name is "PIXMAP"

The "LAST_PREDEFINED" constant is not an atom as such, but the last of the predefined values, which happens to be "WM_TRANSIENT_FOR".

EXPORTS

Nothing is exported by default, but the constants can be requested in usual "Exporter" style,

use X11::AtomConstants 'PIXMAP';
blah (atom => PIXMAP);

The ":all" tag imports everything,

use X11::AtomConstants ':all';
blah (atom1 => POINT,
      atom2 => RECTANGLE);

Many atoms like "STRING" or "WEIGHT" have rather generic names and importing them may be undesirable. They can always be used with the full package name,

use X11::AtomConstants;
blah (atom => X11::AtomConstants::PIXMAP);
