Description Jamey Sharp 2006-02-20 13:13:13 UTC

As discussed on the XCB mailing list around December 2005, we need to provide a
thread-safe API for retrieving X protocol errors from XCB and correlating them
with particular requests. See the discussions on the list for how we decided to
do this.

XCBSendRequest now provides the extension interface needed for this; but
protocol-layer API is needed to expose it to applications. Somebody needs to
hack the XSLT up to do this.

Plan 7 was fully implemented as of
