NAME

XCreateWindowEvent - CreateNotify event structure

STRUCTURES

The structure for _C_r_e_a_t_e_N_o_t_i_f_y events contains:


typedef struct {
     int type;                /* CreateNotify */
     unsigned long serial;    /* # of last request processed by server */
     Bool send_event;         /* true if this came from a SendEvent request */
     Display *display;        /* Display the event was read from */
     Window parent;           /* parent of the window */
     Window window;           /* window id of window created */
     int x, y;                /* window location */
     int width, height;       /* size of window */
     int border_width;        /* border width */
     Bool override_redirect;  /* creation should be overridden */
} XCreateWindowEvent;


When you receive this event, the structure members are set as follows.

The type member is set to the event type constant name that uniquely identifies it. For example, when the X server reports a _G_r_a_p_h_i_c_s_E_x_p_o_s_e event to a client application, it sends an _X_G_r_a_p_h_i_c_s_E_x_p_o_s_e_E_v_e_n_t structure with the type member set to _G_r_a_p_h_i_c_s_E_x_p_o_s_e. The display member is set to a pointer to the display the event was read on. The send_event member is set to _T_r_u_e if the event came from a _S_e_n_d_E_v_e_n_t protocol request. The serial member is set from the serial number reported in the protocol but expanded from the 16-bit least-significant bits to a full 32-bit value. The window member is set to the window that is most useful to toolkit dispatchers.

The parent member is set to the created window's parent. The window member specifies the created window. The x and y members are set to the created window's coordinates relative to the parent window's origin and indicate the position of the upper-left outside corner of the created window. The width and height members are set to the inside size of the created window (not including the border) and are always nonzero. The border_width member is set to the width of the created window's border, in pixels. The override_redirect member is set to the override-redirect attribute of the window. Window manager clients normally should ignore this window if the override_redirect member is _T_r_u_e.
