FBB::Xpointer(3bobcat) | Sets the X-pointer | FBB::Xpointer(3bobcat) |
NAME¶
FBB::Xpointer - Sets the location of the X-windows pointerSYNOPSIS¶
#include <bobcat/xpointer>Linking option: -lbobcat -lX11
DESCRIPTION¶
This class allows programs running within the X-graphical environment to set and retrieve the X-windows pointer location.NAMESPACE¶
FBBAll constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this man-page, are defined in the namespace FBB.
INHERITS FROM¶
-CONSTRUCTORS¶
- o
- Xpointer():
The default constructor. Connects to the Display. throws an Exception exception if the display cannot be opened. With multiple Xpointer objects, the connection to the display is opened only once. - This constructor throws an Exception exception if it could not connect to the Display. The copy constructor is available.
MEMBER FUNCTIONS¶
- o
- bool get(int *x, int *y) const:
Returns in its arguments the currnet pointer coordinates relative to the root-window. On success true is returned; false is returned if the pointer could not be moved. - o
- bool set(int x, int y) const:
Sets the pointer to a location whose pixel coordinates are given with respect to the root-window. A negative x-coordinate is measured from the right screen-margin of the root window (going left), a negative y-coordinate is measured from the bottom screen-margin of the root window (going up). On success true is returned; false is returned if the pointer could not be moved.
EXAMPLE¶
#include <iostream> #include <string> #include <bobcat/xpointer> using namespace FBB; int main() try { Xpointer xpointer; xpointer.verify(); if (!xpointer.set(100, 200)) throw string("Set pointer failed"); int x; int y; if (!xpointer.get(&x, &y)) throw string("Get pointer failed"); cout << "Pointer now at " << x << ", " << y << ’\n’; } catch (string msg) { cout << msg << ’\n’; return 1; }
