Description
These functions are utility functions providing some additional features to libwnck users.
Functions
wnck_set_client_type ()
void
wnck_set_client_type (WnckClientType ewmh_sourceindication_client_type
);
Sets the role of the libwnck user.
The default role is WNCK_CLIENT_TYPE_APPLICATION
. Therefore, for
applications providing some window management features, like pagers or
tasklists, it is important to set the role to WNCK_CLIENT_TYPE_PAGER
for
libwnck to properly work.
Since: 2.14
wnck_shutdown ()
void
wnck_shutdown (void
);
Makes libwnck stop listening to events and tear down all resources from libwnck. This should be done if you are not going to need the state change notifications for an extended period of time, to avoid wakeups with every key and focus event.
After this, all pointers to Wnck object you might still hold are invalid.
Due to the fact that Wnck objects are all owned by libwnck, users of this API through introspection should be extremely careful: they must explicitly clear variables referencing objects before this call. Failure to do so might result in crashes.
