xcbopenfont(3) XCB Requests xcbopenfont(3)

NAME
       xcbopenfont - opens a font

SYNOPSIS
       #include 

   Request function
       xcbvoidcookiet xcbopenfont(xcbconnectiont *conn, xcbfontt fid,
              uint16t namelen, const char *name);

REQUEST ARGUMENTS
       conn      The XCB connection to X11.

       fid       The ID with which you will refer to the font, created by
                 xcbgenerateid.

       namelen  Length (in bytes) of name.

       name      A pattern describing an X core font.

DESCRIPTION
       Opens any X core font matching the given name (for example "-misc-
       fixed-*").

       Note that X core fonts are deprecated (but still supported) in favor of
       client-side rendering using Xft.

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 xcbopenfontchecked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.

ERRORS
       xcbnameerrort
                 No font matches the given name.
