Detailed Description

a shared memory pool

The wl_shm_pool object encapsulates a piece of memory shared between the compositor and client. Through the wl_shm_pool object, the client can allocate shared memory wl_buffer objects. All objects created through the same pool share the same underlying mapped memory. Reusing the mapped memory avoids the setup/teardown overhead and is useful when interactively resizing a surface or for many small buffers.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ wrapper_type

enum wayland::proxy_t::wrapper_type
stronginherited

Underlying wl_proxy type and properties of a proxy_t that affect construction, destruction, and event handling

Enumerator
standard 

C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_proxy*. Events are dispatched and it is destructed when the proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.

display 

C pointer is a wl_display*. No events are dispatched, wl_display_disconnect is called when the proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.

foreign 

C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_proxy*, but another library owns it and it should not be touched in a way that could affect the operation of the other library. No events are dispatched, wl_proxy_destroy is not called when the proxy_t is destructed, user data is not touched. Consequently, there is no reference counting for the proxy_t. Lifetime of such wrappers should preferably be short to minimize the chance that the owning library decides to destroy the wl_proxy.

proxy_wrapper 

C pointer is a wl_proxy* that was constructed with wl_proxy_create_wrapper. No events are dispatched, wl_proxy_wrapper_destroy is called when the proxy_t is destroyed. Reference counting is active. A reference to the proxy_t creating this proxy wrapper is held to extend its lifetime until after the proxy wrapper is destroyed.

Member Function Documentation

◆ c_ptr()

wl_proxy* wayland::proxy_t::c_ptr ( ) const
inherited

Get a pointer to the underlying C struct.

Returns
The underlying wl_proxy wrapped by this proxy_t if it exists, otherwise an exception is thrown

◆ create_buffer()

buffer_t shm_pool_t::create_buffer ( int32_t  offset,
int32_t  width,
int32_t  height,
int32_t  stride,
shm_format  format 
)

create a buffer from the pool

Returns
buffer to create
Parameters
offsetbuffer byte offset within the pool
widthbuffer width, in pixels
heightbuffer height, in pixels
stridenumber of bytes from the beginning of one row to the beginning of the next row
formatbuffer pixel format

Create a wl_buffer object from the pool.

The buffer is created offset bytes into the pool and has width and height as specified. The stride argument specifies the number of bytes from the beginning of one row to the beginning of the next. The format is the pixel format of the buffer and must be one of those advertised through the wl_shm.format event.

A buffer will keep a reference to the pool it was created from so it is valid to destroy the pool immediately after creating a buffer from it.

Definition at line 1775 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.

◆ get_class()

std::string wayland::proxy_t::get_class ( ) const
inherited

Get the interface name (class) of a proxy object.

Returns
The interface name of the object associated with the proxy

◆ get_id()

uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_id ( ) const
inherited

Get the id of a proxy object.

Returns
The id the object associated with the proxy
Examples
dump.cpp.

◆ get_version()

uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_version ( ) const
inherited

Get the protocol object version of a proxy object.

Gets the protocol object version of a proxy object, or 0 if the proxy was created with unversioned API.

A returned value of 0 means that no version information is available, so the caller must make safe assumptions about the object's real version.

display_t will always return version 0.

Returns
The protocol object version of the proxy or 0

◆ get_wrapper_type()

wrapper_type wayland::proxy_t::get_wrapper_type ( ) const
inlineinherited

Get the type of a proxy object.

Definition at line 288 of file wayland-client.hpp.

◆ operator bool()

wayland::proxy_t::operator bool ( ) const
inherited

Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.

Returns
true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty

◆ operator!=()

bool wayland::proxy_t::operator!= ( const proxy_t right) const
inherited

Check whether two wrappers refer to different objects.

◆ operator==()

bool wayland::proxy_t::operator== ( const proxy_t right) const
inherited

Check whether two wrappers refer to the same object.

◆ proxy_has_object()

bool wayland::proxy_t::proxy_has_object ( ) const
inherited

Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.

Returns
true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty

◆ proxy_release()

void wayland::proxy_t::proxy_release ( )
inherited

Release the wrapped object (if any), making this an empty wrapper.

Note that display_t instances cannot be released this way. Attempts to do so are ignored.

Examples
foreign_display.cpp.

◆ resize()

void shm_pool_t::resize ( int32_t  size)

change the size of the pool mapping

Parameters
sizenew size of the pool, in bytes

This request will cause the server to remap the backing memory for the pool from the file descriptor passed when the pool was created, but using the new size. This request can only be used to make the pool bigger.

Definition at line 1781 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.

◆ set_queue()

void wayland::proxy_t::set_queue ( event_queue_t  queue)
inherited

Assign a proxy to an event queue.

Parameters
queueThe event queue that will handle this proxy

Assign proxy to event queue. Events coming from proxy will be queued in queue instead of the display's main queue.

See also: display_t::dispatch_queue().

Examples
proxy_wrapper.cpp.
