xcb_configure_window(3)          XCB Requests          xcb_configure_window(3)

NAME
       xcb_configure_window - Configures window attributes

SYNOPSIS
       #include <xcb/xproto.h>

   Request function
       xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_configure_window(xcb_connection_t *conn,
              xcb_window_t window, uint16_t value_mask, const
              void *value_list);

REQUEST ARGUMENTS
       conn      The XCB connection to X11.

       window    The window to configure.

       value_mask
                 Bitmask of attributes to change.

       value_list
                 New values, corresponding to the attributes in value_mask.
                 The order has to correspond to the order of possible
                 value_mask bits. See the example.

DESCRIPTION
       Configures a window's size, position, border width and stacking order.

RETURN VALUE
       Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the
       event loop.

       If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead,
       use xcb_configure_window_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.

ERRORS
       xcb_match_error_t
                 You specified a Sibling without also specifying StackMode or
                 the window is not actually a Sibling.

                 TODO: reasons?

       xcb_window_error_t
                 The specified window does not exist. TODO: any other reason?

EXAMPLE

       /*
        * Configures the given window to the left upper corner
        * with a size of 1024x768 pixels.
        *
        */
       void my_example(xcb_connection_t *c, xcb_window_t window) {
           uint16_t mask = 0;

           mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_X;
           mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_Y;
           mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_WIDTH;
           mask |= XCB_CONFIG_WINDOW_HEIGHT;

           const uint32_t values[] = {
               0,    /* x */
               0,    /* y */
               1024, /* width */
               768   /* height */
           };

           xcb_configure_window(c, window, mask, values);
           xcb_flush(c);
       }
