x11

I want to change keyboard layout in Linux by programming, What X11's API function does this? S. Razi I found one good solution. It's a c++ class wrriten by Jay Bromley, that I can add to my app and using it. source code It's very easy to use: #include "XKeyboard.h" XKeyboard xkb; std::string cGrpName=xkb.currentGroupName(); //return somethings like "USA" std::string cGrpSymb=xkb.currentGroupSymbol(); //return somethings like "us" xkb.setGroupByNum(0);//set keyboard layout to first layout in available ones you can read source code and found some another useful functions. for compiling

Can anyone help me in creating an X11 window in java swing using eclipse?And also the function to get the x11 id also.What are the basic requirement for creating an X11 window in java. Tom answered the first part of your question. The second part of the answer is: to get the id of an X11 window you are going to have to use native code (code written in C or C++) and access it through the JNI interface. You may have to run a search by title through all existing windows to get the one you desire. Here is a recursive function that will search (starting from the root window) for a window with the

I'm trying to get a global hotkey working in Linux using Mono. I found the signatures of XGrabKey and XUngrabKey , but I can't seem to get them working. Whenever I try to invoke XGrabKey , the application crashes with a SIGSEGV. This is what I have so far: using System; using Gtk; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; namespace GTKTest { class MainClass { const int GrabModeAsync = 1; public static void Main(string[] args) { Application.Init(); MainWindow win = new MainWindow(); win.Show(); // Crashes here XGrabKey( win.Display.Handle, (int)Gdk.Key.A, (uint)KeyMasks.ShiftMask, win.Handle, true,

I tried to write a program which hooks keyboard messages to pronounce the name of each key whenever it is pressed in Ubuntu (KDE); without interfering with normal action of keyboard in programs (just announcing the key name). This is my program: #include <X11/Xlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <iostream> using namespace std; void SendPressKeyEvent(Display *display, XKeyEvent xkey) { Window current_focus_window; int current_focus_revert; XGetInputFocus(display, &current_focus_window, &current_focus_revert); xkey.type = KeyPress; xkey.display = display;

I want to draw simple primitives at specific pixels on the screen (similar to this question ). In order to do that I draw on top of all windows using the Overlay Window of the Window Manager. I can see the shape I am drawing and mouse events pass through but I don't see for example Window movements that are below the Overlay Window (unless I kill my application). I am new to Xlib programming, sry for asking a maybe simple question. #include <assert.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <X11/Xlib.h> #include <X11/extensions/Xcomposite.h> #include <X11/extensions/Xfixes.h> #include <X11/extensions

I came across this when I was compiling a simple program: #include <X11/Xlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> Display* display; int main(){ display = XOpenDisplay(""); if (display == NULL) { printf("Cannot connect\n"); exit (-1); } else{ printf("Success!\n"); XCloseDisplay(display); } } FYI, I have xQuartz installed. I compile this program with "g++ -o ex ex.cpp -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11" command. you need to compile with: g++ -o ex ex.cpp -I/usr/X11R6/include -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 the X11 headers are installed with xQuartz , but you need to reference them explicitly If you install

I get the following error trying to install Scrapy in a Mavericks OS. I have command line tools and X11 installed I don't really know whats going on and I haven`t found the same error browsing through the Web. I think it might be related to some change in Xcode 5.1 Thanks for the answers! this is part of the command output: $pip install scrapy . . . .

Does anyone know an xlib function to trap a keypress event without losing the original focus? How to get rid of it? (or "to use XGrabKey() without generating Grab-style focusout"?) (or "How to get rid of NotifyGrab and NotifyUngrab focus events at system level?) The XGrabKey will lose focus on key pressed and restore focus on key released. And I want to trap the keypress without leak it to the original window (just as XGrabKey can do it).
