Crate gdk4_x11

Rust GDK 4 X11 bindings

The project website is here.

Rust bindings of GDK 4’s X11 backend, part of gtk4-rs.

GDK is an intermediate layer that isolates GTK from the details of the windowing system. GDK X11 contains functions specific to the X11 backend.

Minimum supported Rust version

Currently, the minimum supported Rust version is 1.80.

Using

We recommend using crates from crates.io, as demonstrated here.

If you want to track the bleeding edge, use the git dependency instead:

[dependencies]
gdk-wayland = { git = "https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk4-rs.git", package = "gdk4-wayland" }

Avoid mixing versioned and git crates like this:

# This will not compile
[dependencies]
gdk-x11 = {version = "0.1", package = "gdk4-x11"}
gdk-wayland = { git = "https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk4-rs.git", package = "gdk4-wayland" }

Functions

• x11_device_get_id
  Returns the device ID as seen by XInput2.
• x11_device_manager_lookup
  Returns the gdk::Device that wraps the given device ID.
• x11_get_server_time
  Routine to get the current X server time stamp.
• x11_get_xatom_by_name_for_display
  Returns the X atom for a gdk::Display corresponding to @atom_name. This function caches the result, so if called repeatedly it is much faster than XInternAtom(), which is a round trip to the server each time.
• x11_get_xatom_name_for_display
  Returns the name of an X atom for its display. This function is meant mainly for debugging, so for convenience, unlike XAtomName() and the result doesn’t need to be freed.
• x11_set_sm_client_id
  Sets the SM_CLIENT_ID property on the application’s leader window so that the window manager can save the application’s state using the X11R6 ICCCM session management protocol.
