Typedef Documentation

◆ event_bitmask_t

typedef uint64_t event_bitmask_t[4]

Event bitmask type.

Used to decide what events will be received by a display, only applicable to events sent by the DWM. By default events 0-127 inclusive are received (the first uint64_t is by default UINT64_MAX)

Definition at line 80 of file event.h.

◆ event_cursor_enter_t

typedef event_mouse_t event_cursor_enter_t

Cursor Enter event.

Sent when the cursor enters a surface.

Definition at line 165 of file event.h.

◆ event_cursor_leave_t

typedef event_mouse_t event_cursor_leave_t

Cursor Leave event.

Sent when the cursor leaves a surface.

Definition at line 172 of file event.h.

◆ event_type_t

typedef uint16_t event_type_t

Event type.

Used to identify the type of an event.

Events are divided into 4 categories:

Standard events (0-127): Sent by the DWM to ONLY the display or surface that the event is targeted at, sent by default.
Global events (128-255): Sent by the DWM to all displays, not sent by default.
Library events (256-511): Sent by the libpatchwork library to elements using the library, cant be subscribed to or unsubscribed from.
Internal Library events (512-1023): Used internally by libpatchwork, should not be used by programs.
User events (1024-65535): Defined by individual programs, cant be subscribed to or unsubscribed from.

TODO: Global events are a security mess, when per-process namespaces stabilize we should consider if this could be done better.

Definition at line 72 of file event.h.

◆ gevent_kbd_t

typedef event_kbd_t gevent_kbd_t

Global Keyboard event.

Sent when a key is pressed or released regardless of which display is focused.

Definition at line 217 of file event.h.

◆ gevent_mouse_t

typedef event_mouse_t gevent_mouse_t

Global Mouse event.

Sent when the mouse is moved or a button is pressed or released regardless of which display is focused or where the cursor is.

Definition at line 225 of file event.h.

◆ gevent_report_t

typedef event_report_t gevent_report_t

Global Report event.

Sent when any surface's information changes.

Definition at line 210 of file event.h.

Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ action_type_t

enum action_type_t

Action type.

Used to specify the type of an action event.

Enumerator
ACTION_NONE
ACTION_RELEASE
ACTION_PRESS
ACTION_CANCEL

Definition at line 47 of file event.h.

◆ report_flags_t

enum report_flags_t

Report flags.

Used to specify what information changed in a report event.

Enumerator
REPORT_NONE
REPORT_RECT
REPORT_IS_VISIBLE
REPORT_IS_FOCUSED
REPORT_NAME

Definition at line 33 of file event.h.
