Proposed xtest.xml
How's this? What apps already use XTest that we could port?

Oops, typo.
Awesome! But I'm not sure it's quite right yet. :-/ (Would you add a URL or other source for the XTEST protocol documentation to this bug?) I suspect the type of 'window' should be 'WINDOW' and 'cursor' should be 'CURSOR'. I'm a bit skeptical of the FakeInput request too: perhaps FakeInput should look more like SendEvent from the core protocol? I haven't been the expert on describing the X protocol since we switched to XML though, so I'm adding Josh to the CC list. Created attachment 5422 [details] Use XCBWINDOW and XCBCURSOR. I could not find a protocol reference. The XTest document I found only described the library. That's why I'm looking for a sample app to port and test with. I used http://cvsweb.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/XExt/xteststr.h?rev=1.1.1.1 and http://cvsweb.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/Xtst/src/XTest.c?rev=1.2 as my guide. Created attachment 5423 [details]
Um, WINDOW and CURSOR.
Created attachment 5425 [details] Conforming to 2.1 protocol document OK, I did find a protocol spec for XTest 2.1: http://ftp.xfree86.org/pub/XFree86/4.5.0/doc/xtest.txt I found and ported a test app (xte), convincing me that this description is workable. The app and description are committed. I've committed changes to actually build a libXCBxtest library. git commit 498bf348b7032e05c4bf625628e8d78dd94de3d2 Oops, I'd already done that. Forgot the -a parameter for git-commit. Pushed. |
