SYNOPSIS
       #include 

   Request function
       xcbvoidcookiet xcbcreategc(xcbconnectiont *conn,
              xcbgcontextt cid, xcbdrawablet drawable,
              uint32t valuemask, const void *valuelist);

REQUEST ARGUMENTS
       conn      The XCB connection to X11.

       cid       The ID with which you will refer to the graphics context,
                 created by xcbgenerateid.

       drawable  Drawable to get the root/depth from.

       valuemask
                 TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

       valuelist
                 TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

DESCRIPTION
       Creates a graphics context. The graphics context can be used with any
       drawable that has the same root and depth as the specified drawable.

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

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

ERRORS
