Arguments
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
host Specifies the host that is to be added or removed.
hosts Specifies each host that is to be added or removed.
mode Specifies the mode. You can pass or
nhosts_return
Returns the number of hosts currently in the access control list.
num_hosts Specifies the number of hosts.
state_return
Returns the state of the access control.
Description
The function adds the specified host to the access control list for that display. The server must be on the same host as the client issu-
ing the command, or a error results.
can generate and errors.
The function adds each specified host to the access control list for that display. The server must be on the same host as the client issu-
ing the command, or a error results.
can generate and errors.
The function returns the current access control list as well as whether the use of the list at connection setup was enabled or disabled.
allows a program to find out what machines can make connections. It also returns a pointer to a list of host structures that were allo-
cated by the function. When no longer needed, this memory should be freed by calling
The function removes the specified host from the access control list for that display. The server must be on the same host as the client
process, or a error results. If you remove your machine from the access list, you can no longer connect to that server, and this operation
cannot be reversed unless you reset the server.

The function either enables or disables the use of the access control list at each connection setup.

The function enables the use of the access control list at each connection setup.

Structures
The structure contains:
typedef struct {
int family; /* for example FamilyInternet */
int length; /* length of address, in bytes */
char *address; /* pointer to find the address */
} XHostAddress;
The family member specifies which protocol address family to use (for example, TCP/IP or DECnet) and can be or The length member specifies
the length of the address in bytes. The address member specifies a pointer to the address.
Diagnostics
A client attempted
to modify the access control list from other than the local (or otherwise authorized) host.
Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument
defined as a set of alternatives can generate this error.
