otherwise the client will +get undefined behavior (XScreenSaver may or may not work). +.PP +If the extension is supported, the event number for +.I ScreenSaverNotify +events is returned in the value pointed to by \fIevent_base\fP. +Since no additional errors are defined by this extension, the results +of \fIerror_base\fP are not defined. +.PP +.B XScreenSaverQueryVersion +returns +.B True +if the request succeeded; the values of the major and minor protocol +versions supported by the server are returned in +.I major_versionp +and +.I minor_versionp . +.PP +.B XScreenSaverAllocInfo +allocates and returns an \fBXScreenSaverInfo\fP structure +for use in calls to \fBXScreenSaverQueryInfo\fP. +All fields in the structure are initialized to zero. +If insufficient memory is available, NULL is returned. +The results of this routine can be released using \fIXFree\fP. +.PP +.B XScreenSaverQueryInfo +returns information about the current state of the +screen server in \fIsaver_info\fP and a non-zero value is +returned. +If the extension is not supported, \fIsaver_info\fP is not changed and 0 +is returned. +.br +The \fIstate\fP field specifies whether or not the screen saver is currently +active and how the \fItil-or-since\fP value should be interpreted: +.TP 4 +.I Off +The screen is not currently being saved; \fItil-or-since\fP +specifies the number of milliseconds until the screen saver is expected to +activate. +.TP 4 +.I On +The screen is currently being saved; \fItil-or-since\fP specifies +the number of milliseconds since the screen saver activated. +.TP 4 +.I Disabled +The screen saver is currently disabled; \fItil-or-since\fP is zero. +.br +The \fIkind\fP field specifies the mechanism that either is currently being +used or would have been were the screen being saved: +.TP 4 +.I Blanked +The video signal to the display monitor was disabled. +.TP 4 +.I Internal +A server-dependent, built-in screen saver image was displayed; either no +client had set the screen saver window attributes or a different client +had the server grabbed when the screen saver activated. +.TP 4 +.I External +The screen saver window was mapped with attributes set by a +client using the \fBScreenSaverSetAttributes\fP request. +.PP +The \fIidle\fP field specifies the number of milliseconds since the last +input was received from the user on any of the input devices. +.br +The \fIevent-mask\fP field specifies which, if any, screen saver +events this client has requested using \fBScreenSaverSelectInput\fP. +.PP +.B XScreenSaverSelectInput +asks that events related to +the screen saver be generated for this client. +If +no bits are set in \fIevent-mask\fP, then no events will be generated. +Otherwise, any combination of the following bits may be set: +.TP 8 +.B ScreenSaverNotify +If this bit is set, \fBScreenSaverNotify\fP events are generated whenever +the screen saver is activated or deactivated. +.TP 8 +.B ScreenSaverCycle +If this bit is set, \fBScreenSaverNotify\fP events are generated whenever +the screen saver cycle interval passes. +.PP +.B XScreenSaverSetAttributes +sets the attributes to be used +the next time the external screen saver is activated. +If another client currently has the attributes set, +a BadAccess error is generated and the request is ignored. +.br +Otherwise, the specified window attributes are checked as if +they were used in a core \fBCreateWindow\fP request whose +parent is the root. +The \fIoverride-redirect\fP field is ignored as it is implicitly set +to True. +If the window attributes result in an error according to the rules for +\fBCreateWindow\fP, the request is ignored. +.br +Otherwise, the attributes are stored and will take effect on the next +activation that occurs when the server is not grabbed by another client. +Any resources specified for the +\fIbackground-pixmap\fP or \fIcursor\fP attributes may be +freed immediately. +The server is free to copy the \fIbackground-pixmap\fP or \fIcursor\fP +resources or to use them in place; therefore, the effect of changing +the contents of those resources is undefined. +If the specified \fIcolormap\fP no longer exists when the screen saver +activates, the parent's colormap is used instead. +If no errors are generated by this request, any previous screen saver +window attributes set by this client are released. +.br +When the screen saver next activates and the server is not grabbed by +another client, the screen saver window is +created, if necessary, and set to the specified attributes and events +are generated as usual. +The colormap associated with the screen saver window is installed. +Finally, the screen saver window is mapped. +.br +The window remains mapped and at the top of the stacking order +until the screen saver is deactivated in response to activity on +any of the user input devices, a \fBForceScreenSaver\fP request with +a value of Reset, or any request that would cause the window to be +unmapped. +.br +If the screen saver activates while the server is grabbed by another +client, the internal saver mechanism is used. +The \fBForceScreenSaver\fP request may be used with a value of Active +to deactivate the internal saver and activate the external saver. +.br +If the screen saver client's connection to the server is broken +while the screen saver is activated and the client's close down mode has not +been RetainPermanent or RetainTemporary, the current screen saver +is deactivated and the internal screen saver is immediately activated. +.br +When the screen saver deactivates, the screen saver window's colormap +is uninstalled and the window is unmapped (except as described below). +The screen saver XID is disassociated +with the window and the server may, but is not required to, +destroy the window along with any children. +.br +When the screen saver is being deactivated and then immediately +reactivated (such as when switching screen savers), the server +may leave the screen saver window mapped (typically to avoid +generating exposures). +.PP +.B XScreenSaverUnsetAttributes +instructs the server to discard +any previous screen saver window attributes set by this client. +.PP +.B XScreenSaverRegister +stores the given \fIXID\fP in the \fB_SCREEN_SAVER_ID\fP +property (of the given \fItype\fP) on the +root window of the specified \fIscreen\fP. +It returns zero if an error is encountered and the property is not +changed, otherwise it returns non-zero. +.PP +.B XScreenSaverUnregister +removes any \fB_SCREEN_SAVER_ID\fP from the +root window of the specified \fIscreen\fP. +It returns zero if an error is encountered and the property is +changed, otherwise it returns non-zero. +.PP +.B XScreenSaverGetRegistered +returns the \fIXID\fP and \fItype\fP stored in +the \fB_SCREEN_SAVER_ID\fP property on the +root window of the specified \fIscreen\fP. +It returns zero if an error is encountered or if the property does not +exist or is not of the correct format; otherwise it returns non-zero. +.SH "ERRORS" +.B XScreenSaverSelectInput, +.B XScreenSaverQueryInfo, +.B XScreenSaverSetAttributes +and +.B XScreenSaverUnsetAttributes +will generate a +.I BadDrawable +error if \fIdrawable\fP is not a valid drawable identifier. +If any undefined bits are set in \fIevent-mask\fP, +a BadValue error is generated by +.B XScreenSaverSelectInput . +.PP +.SH "SEE ALSO" +Xlib(1), X(7) +.SH AUTHORS +Jim Fulton and Keith Packard. +.SH STABILITY +This API is considered as experimental. +The Xss library major revision may be incremented whenever +incompatible changes are done to the API without notice. +Use with care. -- cgit v1.2.1
