xcb_dbe_deallocate_back_buffer(3)

xcb_dbe_deallocate_back_buffer3

Deallocates a back buffer

Usage

#include <xcb/dbe.h>

Request function

xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_dbe_deallocate_back_buffer(xcb_connection_t *conn, xcb_dbe_back_buffer_t buffer);

Request arguments

conn

The XCB connection to X11.

buffer

The back buffer to deallocate.

Overview

Deallocates the given buffer. If buffer is an invalid id, a BadBuffer error is returned. Because a window may have allocated multiple back buffer ids, the back buffer itself is not deleted until all these ids are deallocated by this call.

Return value

Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the event loop.

If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead, use xcb_dbe_deallocate_back_buffer_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.

Errors

This request does never generate any errors.
