XLoadQueryFont() XLoadQueryFont() Name XLoadQueryFont - load a font and fill information structure. Synopsis XFontStruct *XLoadQueryFont(display, name) Display *display; char *name; Arguments display Specifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay(). name Specifies the name of the font. This name is a NULL-terminated string. As of Release 4, the * and ? wildcards are allowed and may be supported by the server. Uppercase or lowercase is not important. If the font name is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, the result is implementation-dependent. Returns The font description structure. Description XLoadQueryFont() performs an XLoadFont() and XQueryFont() in a single operation. XLoadQueryFont() provides the easiest way to get charac- ter-size tables for placing a proportional font. That is, XLoadQueryFont() both opens (loads) the specified font and returns a pointer to the appropriate XFontStruct structure. If the font does not exist, XLoadQueryFont() returns NULL. The XFontStruct structure consists of the font-specific information and a pointer to an array of XCharStruct structures for each character in the font. For more information on fonts, see Volume One, Chapter 6, Drawing Graphics and Text. Errors BadAlloc Server has insufficient memory to store font. BadName name specifies an unavailable font.
