XGetExtensionVersion(3X11)					    X FUNCTIONS 					XGetExtensionVersion(3X11)

NAME
XGetExtensionVersion - query the version of the input extension. SYNTAX
XExtensionVersion *XGetExtensionVersion(display, name) Display *display; char *name; ARGUMENTS
display Specifies the connection to the X server. name Specifies the extension to be queried. The input extension name is defined in the header file XI.h. DESCRIPTION
The XGetExtensionVersion request queries the version of the input extension, and returns an XExtensionVersion structure. This structure contains a major_version and minor_version number which can be compared with constants defined in XI.h. Support for additional protocol requests added to the input extension after its initial release is indicated by a version number corresponding to the added requests. Each version contains all the protocol requests contained by previous versions. You should use XFree to free the XExtensionVersion structure. STRUCTURES
This request returns an XExtensionVersion structure. typedef struct { int present; short major_version; short minor_version; } XExtensionVersion; DIAGNOSTICS

XQueryDeviceState(3X11) 					    X FUNCTIONS 					   XQueryDeviceState(3X11)

NAME
XQueryDeviceState - query the state of an extension input device. SYNTAX
int XQueryDeviceState(Display *display, XDevice *device); ARGUMENTS
display Specifies the connection to the X server. device Specifies the device whose state is to be queried. DESCRIPTION
The XQueryDeviceState request queries the state of an input device. The current state of keys and buttons (up or down), and valuators (current value) on the device is reported by this request. Each key or button is represented by a bit in the XDeviceState structure that is returned. Valuators on the device report 0 if they are reporting relative information, and the current value if they are reporting absolute information. XQueryDeviceState can generate a BadDevice error. STRUCTURES
The XDeviceState structure contains: typedef struct { XID device_id; int num_classes; XInputClass *data; } XDeviceState; The XValuatorState structure contains: typedef struct { unsigned char class; unsigned char length; unsigned char num_valuators; unsigned char mode; int *valuators; } XValuatorState; The XKeyState structure contains: typedef struct { unsigned char class; unsigned char length; short num_keys; char keys[32]; } XKeyState; The XButtonState structure contains: typedef struct { unsigned char class; unsigned char length; short num_buttons; char buttons[32]; } XButtonState; DIAGNOSTICS
BadDevice An invalid device was specified. The specified device does not exist or has not been opened by this client via XOpenInputDe- vice. This error may also occur if some other client has caused the specified device to become the X keyboard or X pointer device via the XChangeKeyboardDevice or XChangePointerDevice requests. SEE ALSO
