X Input Protocol 1.5.0 Additions over 1.4: input device properties support. IDP are modelled after window properties and work much in the same manner. Each X Input device can have multiple properties of arbitrary types at any point in time. These properties can be interpreted by the server and/or the driver and thus allow cheap, easily expandable ways of configuring devices. IDP can also be read by other clients, allowing clients to label devices or device specific features. Two of the more obvious cases are to label a device as "primary", or to label each axis to denote it's function ("press", "tilt", "rotation", etc.). For those reading commit logs: IDP were originally added as XGE events as part of XI2, then backported to traditional events. Cheers, Peter Peter Hutterer (10): Back out Device Properties from XI 2, push into XI 1.5. Protect against C++ includes. Add libXi's property interfaces. PropertyNotify, move deviceid back to last byte. Remove RCS tags, typo fix. Make sure Atoms are defined as CARD32. Undef Atom after we're done so we don't pollute users of XIproto.h Add XI_JOYSTICK type. Remove Configure/QueryDeviceProperty. inputproto 1.5.0 git tag: inputproto-1.5.0 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/proto/inputproto-1.5.0.tar.bz2 MD5: dcc36554aea1338b3813943daf1e9988 inputproto-1.5.0.tar.bz2 SHA1: c6514843f35e2591fadc13f3fc87bf3752b7197c inputproto-1.5.0.tar.bz2 http://xorg.freedesktop.org/archive/individual/proto/inputproto-1.5.0.tar.gz MD5: edab35e039779f7f967e4f29878c5421 inputproto-1.5.0.tar.gz SHA1: c7dbcc6cd43086a03eb9462307df7186aad25acc inputproto-1.5.0.tar.gz -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
