X11Client

Implements the X11 protocol as a client. Allows connecting to a local or remote X11 server.

Note: Because of heavy use of code generation, this class's API may be a little opaque. You may instead find the example in demo/x11/demo.d more illuminating.

Constructors

this this(): Connect to the default X server (according to $DISPLAY).
this this(string display): Connect to the server described by the specified display string.
this this(AddressInfo[] ai): Connect to the given address specs.

Functions

configureAuthentication void configureAuthentication(string display): Automatically attempt to configure authentication by reading ~/.Xauthority.
newRID CARD32 newRID(): Generate a new resource ID, which can be used to identify resources created by this connection.
requestExtension Promise!Ext requestExtension(): Request an extension. The promise is fulfilled with an instance of the extension bound to the current connection, or null if the extension is not available.
sendRequest void sendRequest(BYTE reqType, Data requestData, void delegate(Data) handler): Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.

Properties

handleDisconnect void delegate(string, DisconnectType) handleDisconnect [@property setter]: Undocumented in source. Be warned that the author may not have intended to support it.

Static functions

parseDisplayString AddressInfo[] parseDisplayString(string display): Parse a display string into connectable address specs.

Structs
