.SS Request function
.HP
xcb_void_cookie_t \fBxcb_configure_window\fP(xcb_connection_t\ *\fIconn\fP, xcb_window_t\ \fIwindow\fP, uint16_t\ \fIvalue_mask\fP, const void\ *\fIvalue_list\fP);

.SH REQUEST ARGUMENTS
.IP \fIconn\fP 1i
The XCB connection to X11.
.IP \fIwindow\fP 1i
The window to configure.
.IP \fIvalue_mask\fP 1i
Bitmask of attributes to change.
.IP \fIvalue_list\fP 1i
New values, corresponding to the attributes in value_mask. The order has to
correspond to the order of possible \fIvalue_mask\fP bits. See the example.
.SH DESCRIPTION
Configures a window's size, position, border width and stacking order.
.SH RETURN VALUE
Returns an \fIxcb_void_cookie_t\fP. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop.

If you want to handle errors directly with \fIxcb_request_check\fP instead, use \fIxcb_configure_window_checked\fP. See \fBxcb-requests(3)\fP for details.
.SH ERRORS
.IP \fIxcb_match_error_t\fP 1i
You specified a Sibling without also specifying StackMode or the window is not
actually a Sibling.
.IP \fIxcb_value_error_t\fP 1i
TODO: reasons?
.IP \fIxcb_window_error_t\fP 1i
The specified window does not exist. TODO: any other reason?
