XAllocSizeHints()					     XAllocSizeHints()

Name
  XAllocSizeHints – allocate an XSizeHints structure.

Synopsis
  XSizeHints *XAllocSizeHints( )

Returns
  The allocated structure.

Availability
  Release 4 and later.

Description
  XAllocSizeHints()  allocates	and  returns  a	 pointer to an XSizeHints
  structure, for use in calling XSetWMProperties(),  XSetWMNormalHints(),
  or  XGetWMNormalHints().  Note that all fields in the XSizeHints struc‐
  ture are initially set to zero.  If insufficient memory  is  available,
  XAllocSizeHints()  returns  NULL.  To free the memory allocated to this
  structure, use XFree().

  The purpose of this function is to avoid compiled-in	structure  sizes,
  so that object files will be binary compatible with later releases that
  may have new members added to structures.

  For more information, see Volume One, Chapter 12, Interclient	 Communi‐
  cation.

Structures
     typedef struct {
	 long flags;	    /* marks which fields in this structure are defined */
	 int x, y;	    /* Obsolete */
	 int width, height; /* Obsolete */
	 int min_width, min_height;
	 int max_width, max_height;
	 int width_inc, height_inc;
	 struct {
	     int x;	    /* numerator */
	     int y;	    /* denominator */
	 } min_aspect, max_aspect;
	 int base_width, base_height;
	 int win_gravity;
     } XSizeHints;
