Detailed Description

The QXcbWindowFunctions class is an inline class containing miscellaneous functionality for xcb window specific functionality.

A common usage pattern is as follows:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    QApplication app(argc, argv);

    QPushButton topLevelWidget("Hello World!");
    topLevelWidget.winId(); //have to create the QWindow

    QWindow *tlwWindow = topLevelWidget.windowHandle();

    QXcbWindowFunctions::setWmWindowType(tlwWindow, QXcbWindowFunctions::Dock);

    topLevelWidget.show();

    return app.exec();
}

Note: There is no binary compatibility guarantee for this class, meaning that an application using it is only guaranteed to work with the Qt version it was developed against.

Member Type Documentation

typedef QXcbWindowFunctions::SetWmWindowType

This is the typedef for the function returned by QGuiApplication::platformFunction when passed setWmWindowTypeIdentifier.

typedef QXcbWindowFunctions::VisualId

enum QXcbWindowFunctions::WmWindowType
flags QXcbWindowFunctions::WmWindowTypes

This enum represents the supported WM_WINDOW_TYPE atoms.

Member Function Documentation

[static] void QXcbWindowFunctions::setWmWindowType(QWindow * window, WmWindowType type)

This is a convenience function that can be used directly instead of resolving the function pointer. window and type will be relayed to the function retrieved by QGuiApplication

[static] const QByteArray QXcbWindowFunctions::setWmWindowTypeIdentifier()

This function returns the byte array that can be used to query QGuiApplication::platformFunction to retrieve the SetWmWindowType function.

[static] uint QXcbWindowFunctions::visualId(QWindow * window)

[static] const QByteArray QXcbWindowFunctions::visualIdIdentifier()
