Detailed Description
group of input devices
A seat is a group of keyboards, pointer and touch devices. This object is published as a global during
start up, or when such a device is hot plugged. A seat typically has a pointer and maintains a keyboard
focus and a pointer focus.
Examples
egl.cpp, proxy_wrapper.cpp, and shm.cpp.

Member Enumeration Documentation
enum class wayland::proxy_t::wrapper_type [strong], [inherited]
Underlying wl_proxy type and properties of a proxy_t that affect construction, destruction, and event
handling
Enumerator
standard
C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_proxy*. Events are dispatched and it is destructed
when the proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.
display
C pointer is a wl_display*. No events are dispatched, wl_display_disconnect is called when the
proxy_t is destructed. User data is set.
foreign
C pointer is a standard type compatible with wl_proxy*, but another library owns it and it should
not be touched in a way that could affect the operation of the other library. No events are
dispatched, wl_proxy_destroy is not called when the proxy_t is destructed, user data is not
touched. Consequently, there is no reference counting for the proxy_t. Lifetime of such wrappers
should preferably be short to minimize the chance that the owning library decides to destroy the
wl_proxy.
proxy_wrapper
C pointer is a wl_proxy* that was constructed with wl_proxy_create_wrapper. No events are
dispatched, wl_proxy_wrapper_destroy is called when the proxy_t is destroyed. Reference counting
is active. A reference to the proxy_t creating this proxy wrapper is held to extend its lifetime
until after the proxy wrapper is destroyed.

Member Function Documentation
wl_proxy * wayland::proxy_t::c_ptr () const [inherited]
Get a pointer to the underlying C struct.
Returns
The underlying wl_proxy wrapped by this proxy_t if it exists, otherwise an exception is thrown
bool seat_t::can_release () const
Check whether the release function is available with the currently bound version of the protocol.
Definition at line 2875 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.
std::string wayland::proxy_t::get_class () const [inherited]
Get the interface name (class) of a proxy object.
Returns
The interface name of the object associated with the proxy
uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_id () const [inherited]
Get the id of a proxy object.
Returns
The id the object associated with the proxy
keyboard_t seat_t::get_keyboard ()
return keyboard object
Returns
seat keyboard
The ID provided will be initialized to the wl_keyboard interface for this seat.
This request only takes effect if the seat has the keyboard capability, or has had the keyboard
capability in the past. It is a protocol violation to issue this request on a seat that has never had the
keyboard capability. The missing_capability error will be sent in this case.
Examples
egl.cpp, proxy_wrapper.cpp, and shm.cpp.
Definition at line 2856 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.
pointer_t seat_t::get_pointer ()
return pointer object
Returns
seat pointer
The ID provided will be initialized to the wl_pointer interface for this seat.
This request only takes effect if the seat has the pointer capability, or has had the pointer capability
in the past. It is a protocol violation to issue this request on a seat that has never had the pointer
capability. The missing_capability error will be sent in this case.
Examples
egl.cpp, and shm.cpp.
Definition at line 2849 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.
touch_t seat_t::get_touch ()
return touch object
Returns
seat touch interface
The ID provided will be initialized to the wl_touch interface for this seat.
This request only takes effect if the seat has the touch capability, or has had the touch capability in
the past. It is a protocol violation to issue this request on a seat that has never had the touch
capability. The missing_capability error will be sent in this case.
Definition at line 2863 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.
uint32_t wayland::proxy_t::get_version () const [inherited]
Get the protocol object version of a proxy object. Gets the protocol object version of a proxy object, or
0 if the proxy was created with unversioned API.
A returned value of 0 means that no version information is available, so the caller must make safe
assumptions about the object's real version.
display_t will always return version 0.
Returns
The protocol object version of the proxy or 0
wrapper_type wayland::proxy_t::get_wrapper_type () const [inline], [inherited]
Get the type of a proxy object.
Definition at line 302 of file wayland-client.hpp.
std::function< void(seat_capability)> & seat_t::on_capabilities ()
seat capabilities changed
Parameters
capabilities capabilities of the seat
This is emitted whenever a seat gains or loses the pointer, keyboard or touch capabilities. The argument
is a capability enum containing the complete set of capabilities this seat has.
When the pointer capability is added, a client may create a wl_pointer object using the
wl_seat.get_pointer request. This object will receive pointer events until the capability is removed in
the future.
When the pointer capability is removed, a client should destroy the wl_pointer objects associated with
the seat where the capability was removed, using the wl_pointer.release request. No further pointer
events will be received on these objects.
In some compositors, if a seat regains the pointer capability and a client has a previously obtained
wl_pointer object of version 4 or less, that object may start sending pointer events again. This behavior
is considered a misinterpretation of the intended behavior and must not be relied upon by the client.
wl_pointer objects of version 5 or later must not send events if created before the most recent event
notifying the client of an added pointer capability.
The above behavior also applies to wl_keyboard and wl_touch with the keyboard and touch capabilities,
respectively.
Examples
egl.cpp, and shm.cpp.
Definition at line 2881 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.
std::function< void(std::string)> & seat_t::on_name ()
unique identifier for this seat
Parameters
name seat identifier
In a multi-seat configuration the seat name can be used by clients to help identify which physical
devices the seat represents.
The seat name is a UTF-8 string with no convention defined for its contents. Each name is unique among
all wl_seat globals. The name is only guaranteed to be unique for the current compositor instance.
The same seat names are used for all clients. Thus, the name can be shared across processes to refer to a
specific wl_seat global.
The name event is sent after binding to the seat global. This event is only sent once per seat object,
and the name does not change over the lifetime of the wl_seat global.
Compositors may re-use the same seat name if the wl_seat global is destroyed and re-created later.
Definition at line 2886 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.
wayland::proxy_t::operator bool () const [inherited]
Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.
Returns
true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty
bool wayland::proxy_t::operator!= (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
Check whether two wrappers refer to different objects.
bool wayland::proxy_t::operator== (const proxy_t & right) const [inherited]
Check whether two wrappers refer to the same object.
bool wayland::proxy_t::proxy_has_object () const [inherited]
Check whether this wrapper actually wraps an object.
Returns
true if there is an underlying object, false if this wrapper is empty
void wayland::proxy_t::proxy_release () [inherited]
Release the wrapped object (if any), making this an empty wrapper. Note that display_t instances cannot
be released this way. Attempts to do so are ignored.
Examples
foreign_display.cpp.
void seat_t::release ()
release the seat object Using this request a client can tell the server that it is not going to use the
seat object anymore.
Definition at line 2870 of file wayland-client-protocol.cpp.
void wayland::proxy_t::set_queue (event_queue_t queue) [inherited]
Assign a proxy to an event queue.
Parameters
queue The event queue that will handle this proxy
Assign proxy to event queue. Events coming from proxy will be queued in queue instead of the display's
main queue.
See also: display_t::dispatch_queue().
Examples
proxy_wrapper.cpp.
