If the extension is available, the +return value is True, and event_base_return and error_base_return are set to +the base event number and base error number for the extension, respectively. +Otherwise, the return value is False, and the values of event_base_return and +error_base_return are undefined. +.sp + +.SS \fBXineramaQueryVersion()\fR + +.LP +The XineramaQueryVersion function returns the version of the Xinerama extension +implemented by the Xserver. The version is returned in major_version_return +and minor_version_return. The major version will be incremented for protocol +incompatible changes, and the minor version will be incremented for small, +upwardly compatible changes. +.LP +If the Xinerama library is compatible with the version returned by the +server, it returns nonzero. If the server does not support the +XINERAMA extension, or if there was an error during communications +with the server, or if the server and library protocol versions are +incompatible, it returns zero. +.sp + +.SS \fBXineramaIsActive()\fR + +.LP +The XineramaIsActive function returns a Boolean operator used to determine if +Xinerama is activated on the screen. Returns True for active and False for +not active. +.sp + +.SS \fBXineramaQueryScreens()\fR + +.LP +The \fBXineramaQueryScreens()\fR function returns info about each +individual output device within the Xinerama Screen. The integer +pointed to by the \fInumber\fR argument is updated to the number of +output devices listed in the returned array of \fIXineramaScreenInfo\fR +structures. \fBXineramaQueryScreens()\fR returns NULL and sets \fInumber\fR +to 0 if Xinerama is not active. + +The pointer returned should be released with XFree(__libmansuffix__) +when no longer needed. +.sp + +.SH NOTE +The original API provided for interacting with the XINERAMA extension used +function names beginning with \fIXPanoramiX\fR. That API is now deprecated +and this API should be used instead in new software. + + + |
