XCreateWindowEvent - CreateNotify event structure
Structures
The structure for events contains:
typedef struct {
int type; /* CreateNotify */
unsigned long serial; /* # of last request processed by
server */
Bool send_event; /* true if came from a SendEvent
request */
Display *display; /* Display the event was read
from */
Window parent; /* parent of the window */
Window window; /* window id of window created */
int x, y; /* window location */
int width, height; /* size of window */
int border_width; /* border width */
Bool override_redirect; /* creation should be overridden */
} XCreateWindowEvent;
When you receive this event, the structure members are set as follows.
The type member is set to the event type constant name that uniquely identifies it. For example, when the X server reports a event to a
client application, it sends an structure with the type member set to The display member is set to a pointer to the display the event was
read on. The send_event member is set to if the event came from a protocol request. The serial member is set from the serial number
reported in the protocol but expanded from the 16-bit least-significant bits to a full 32-bit value. The window member is set to the win-
dow that is most useful to toolkit dispatchers.
The parent member is set to the created window's parent. The window member specifies the created window. The x and y members are set to
the created window's coordinates relative to the parent window's origin and indicate the position of the upper-left outside corner of the
created window. The width and height members are set to the inside size of the created window (not including the border) and are always
nonzero. The border_width member is set to the width of the created window's border, in pixels. The override_redirect member is set to
the override-redirect attribute of the window. Window manager clients normally should ignore this window if the override_redirect member
is
