Detailed Description

       shared memory support

       A singleton global object that provides support for shared memory.

       Clients can create wl_shm_pool objects using the create_pool request.

       On binding the wl_shm object one or more format events are emitted to inform clients about
       the valid pixel formats that can be used for buffers.

       Examples
           egl.cpp, and shm.cpp.

Member Enumeration Documentation

   enum class wayland::proxy_t::wrapper_type [strong],  [inherited]
       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

   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

   shm_pool_t shm_t::create_pool (int fd, int32_t size)
       create a shm pool

       Returns
           pool to create

       Parameters
           fd file descriptor for the pool
           size pool size, in bytes

       Create a new wl_shm_pool object.

       The pool can be used to create shared memory based buffer objects. The server will mmap
       size bytes of the passed file descriptor, to use as backing memory for the pool.

       Examples
           shm.cpp.

       Definition at line 1883 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.

   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

   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

   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

   wrapper_type wayland::proxy_t::get_wrapper_type () const [inline],  [inherited]
       Get the type of a proxy object.

       Definition at line 302 of file wayland-client.hpp.

   std::function< void(shm_format)> & shm_t::on_format ()
       pixel format description

       Parameters
           format buffer pixel format

       Informs the client about a valid pixel format that can be used for buffers. Known formats
       include argb8888 and xrgb8888.

       Definition at line 1890 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.

   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

   bool wayland::proxy_t::operator!= (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
       Check whether two wrappers refer to different objects.

   bool wayland::proxy_t::operator== (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
       Check whether two wrappers refer to the same 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

   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.

   void wayland::proxy_t::set_queue (event_queue_t queue) [inherited]
       Assign a proxy to an event queue.

       Parameters
           queue The 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.
