-The

-.ZN XAllocColor

-function allocates a read-only colormap entry corresponding to the closest

-RGB value supported by the hardware.

-.ZN XAllocColor

-returns the pixel value of the color closest to the specified

-RGB elements supported by the hardware

-and returns the RGB value actually used.

-The corresponding colormap cell is read-only.

-In addition,

-.ZN XAllocColor

-returns nonzero if it succeeded or zero if it failed.

-.IN "Color map"

-.IN "Color" "allocation"

-.IN "Allocation" "colormap"

-.IN "read-only colormap cells"

-Multiple clients that request the same effective RGB value can be assigned

-the same read-only entry, thus allowing entries to be shared.

-When the last client deallocates a shared cell, it is deallocated.

-.ZN XAllocColor

-does not use or affect the flags in the

-.ZN XColor

-structure.

-.LP

-.ZN XAllocColor

-can generate a

-.ZN BadColor 

-error.

-.LP

-The

-.ZN XAllocNamedColor

-function looks up the named color with respect to the screen that is

-associated with the specified colormap.

-It returns both the exact database definition and

-the closest color supported by the screen.

-The allocated color cell is read-only.

-The pixel value is returned in screen_def_return.

-If the color name is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, 

-the result is implementation-dependent.

-Use of uppercase or lowercase does not matter.

-If screen_def_return and exact_def_return

-point to the same structure, the pixel field will be set correctly,

-but the color values are undefined.

-.ZN XAllocNamedColor

-returns nonzero if a cell is allocated;

-otherwise, it returns zero.

-.LP

-.ZN XAllocNamedColor

-can generate a

-.ZN BadColor

-error.

-.LP

-.EN

-The

-.ZN XAllocColorCells

-function allocates read/write color cells.

-The number of colors must be positive and the number of planes nonnegative,

-or a

-.ZN BadValue

-error results.

-If ncolors and nplanes are requested, 

-then ncolors pixels

-and nplane plane masks are returned.

-No mask will have any bits set to 1 in common with

-any other mask or with any of the pixels.

-By ORing together each pixel with zero or more masks,

-ncolors * %2 sup nplanes% distinct pixels can be produced.

-All of these are

-allocated writable by the request.

-For 

-.ZN GrayScale 

-or 

-.ZN PseudoColor , 

-each mask has exactly one bit set to 1. 

-For 

-.ZN DirectColor , 

-each has exactly three bits set to 1.

-If contig is 

-.ZN True 

-and if all masks are ORed

-together, a single contiguous set of bits set to 1 will be formed for 

-.ZN GrayScale

-or 

-.ZN PseudoColor 

-and three contiguous sets of bits set to 1 (one within each

-pixel subfield) for 

-.ZN DirectColor .

-The RGB values of the allocated

-entries are undefined.

-.ZN XAllocColorCells

-The specified ncolors must be positive;

-.ZN BadValue

-error results.

-If ncolors colors, nreds reds, ngreens greens, and nblues blues are requested, 

-ncolors pixels are returned; and the masks have nreds, ngreens, and 

-nblues bits set to 1, respectively.

-If contig is 

-.ZN True , 

-each mask will have

-a contiguous set of bits set to 1.

-No mask will have any bits set to 1 in common with

-any other mask or with any of the pixels.

-For 

-.ZN DirectColor , 

-each mask

-will lie within the corresponding pixel subfield.

-By ORing together

-subsets of masks with each pixel value, 

-ncolors * %2 sup (nreds+ngreens+nblues)% distinct pixel values can be produced. 

-All of these are allocated by the request.

-However, in the

-colormap, there are only ncolors * %2 sup nreds% independent red entries, 

-ncolors * %2 sup ngreens% independent green entries, 

-and ncolors * %2 sup nblues% independent blue entries. 

-This is true even for 

-.ZN PseudoColor .

-When the colormap entry of a pixel

-value is changed (using 

-.ZN XStoreColors ,

-.ZN XStoreColor ,

-or 

-.ZN XStoreNamedColor ),

-the pixel is decomposed according to the masks, 

-and the corresponding independent entries are updated.

-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes

-returns nonzero if it succeeded or zero if it failed.

-.LP

-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes

-can generate

-.ZN BadColor

-.ZN BadValue

-.LP

-The

-.ZN XFreeColors

-function frees the cells represented by pixels whose values are in the

-pixels array.

-The planes argument should not have any bits set to 1 in common with any of the

-pixels. 

-The set of all pixels is produced by ORing together subsets of

-the planes argument with the pixels.

-The request frees all of these pixels that

-were allocated by the client (using 

-.IN XAllocColor

-.IN XAllocNamedColor

-.IN XAllocColorCells

-.IN XAllocColorPlanes

-.ZN XAllocColor , 

-.ZN XAllocNamedColor ,

-.ZN XAllocColorCells ,

-and 

-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes ).

-Note that freeing an

-individual pixel obtained from 

-.ZN XAllocColorPlanes 

-may not actually allow

-it to be reused until all of its related pixels are also freed.

-Similarly,

-a read-only entry is not actually freed until it has been freed by all clients,

-and if a client allocates the same read-only entry multiple times,

-it must free the entry that many times before the entry is actually freed.

-.LP

-All specified pixels that are allocated by the client in the colormap are

-freed, even if one or more pixels produce an error. 

-If a specified pixel is not a valid index into the colormap, a 

-.ZN BadValue 

-error results.

-If a specified pixel is not allocated by the

-client (that is, is unallocated or is only allocated by another client)

-or if the colormap was created with all entries writable (by passing

-.ZN AllocAll

-to

-.ZN XCreateColormap ),

-a

-.ZN BadAccess

-error results. 

-If more than one pixel is in error, 

-the one that gets reported is arbitrary.

-.LP

-.ZN XFreeColors

-can generate

-.ZN BadAccess ,

-.ZN BadColor ,

-and

-.ZN BadValue 

-errors.

-.SH DIAGNOSTICS

-.TP 1i

-.ZN BadAccess

-A client attempted

-to free a color map entry that it did not already allocate.

-.TP 1i

-.ZN BadAccess

-A client attempted

-to store into a read-only color map entry.

-.TP 1i

-.ZN BadColor

-A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.

-.TP 1i

-.ZN BadValue

-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.

+No mask will have any bits set to 1 in common with
+any other mask or with any of the pixels.
+For 
+.ZN DirectColor , 
+each mask
+will lie within the corresponding pixel subfield.
+By ORing together
+subsets of masks with each pixel value, 
+ncolors * %2 sup (nreds+ngreens+nblues)% distinct pixel values can be produced. 
+All of these are allocated by the request.
+However, in the
+colormap, there are only ncolors * %2 sup nreds% independent red entries, 
+ncolors * %2 sup ngreens% independent green entries, 
+and ncolors * %2 sup nblues% independent blue entries. 
+This is true even for 
+.ZN PseudoColor .
+When the colormap entry of a pixel
+value is changed (using 
+.ZN XStoreColors ,
+.ZN XStoreColor ,
+or 
+.ZN XStoreNamedColor ),
+the pixel is decomposed according to the masks, 
+and the corresponding independent entries are updated.
+.ZN XAllocColorPlanes
+returns nonzero if it succeeded or zero if it failed.
+.LP
+.ZN XAllocColorPlanes
+can generate
+.ZN BadColor
+and
+.ZN BadValue 
+errors.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XFreeColors
+function frees the cells represented by pixels whose values are in the
+pixels array.
+The planes argument should not have any bits set to 1 in common with any of the
+pixels. 
+The set of all pixels is produced by ORing together subsets of
+the planes argument with the pixels.
+The request frees all of these pixels that
+were allocated by the client (using 
+.IN XAllocColor
+.IN XAllocNamedColor
+.IN XAllocColorCells
+.IN XAllocColorPlanes
+.ZN XAllocColor , 
+.ZN XAllocNamedColor ,
+.ZN XAllocColorCells ,
+and 
+.ZN XAllocColorPlanes ).
+Note that freeing an
+individual pixel obtained from 
+.ZN XAllocColorPlanes 
+may not actually allow
+it to be reused until all of its related pixels are also freed.
+Similarly,
+a read-only entry is not actually freed until it has been freed by all clients,
+and if a client allocates the same read-only entry multiple times,
+it must free the entry that many times before the entry is actually freed.
+.LP
+All specified pixels that are allocated by the client in the colormap are
+freed, even if one or more pixels produce an error. 
+If a specified pixel is not a valid index into the colormap, a 
+.ZN BadValue 
+error results.
+If a specified pixel is not allocated by the
+client (that is, is unallocated or is only allocated by another client)
+or if the colormap was created with all entries writable (by passing
+.ZN AllocAll
+to
+.ZN XCreateColormap ),
+a
+.ZN BadAccess
+error results. 
+If more than one pixel is in error, 
+the one that gets reported is arbitrary.
+.LP
+.ZN XFreeColors
+can generate
+.ZN BadAccess ,
+.ZN BadColor ,
+and
+.ZN BadValue 
+errors.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadAccess
+A client attempted
+to free a color map entry that it did not already allocate.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadAccess
+A client attempted
+to store into a read-only color map entry.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadColor
+A value for a Colormap argument does not name a defined Colormap.
+.TP 1i
+.ZN BadValue
+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.
