XFilterEvent(3X11) X Version 11 (Release 6.6) XFilterEvent(3X11)
NAME
XFilterEvent - filter X events for an input method
SYNTAX
Bool XFilterEvent(event, w)
XEvent *event;
Window w;
ARGUMENTS
event Specifies the event to filter.
w Specifies the window for which the filter is to be
applied.
DESCRIPTION
If the window argument is None, XFilterEvent applies the
filter to the window specified in the XEvent structure. The
window argument is provided so that layers above Xlib that
do event redirection can indicate to which window an event
has been redirected.
If XFilterEvent returns True, then some input method has
filtered the event, and the client should discard the event.
If XFilterEvent returns False, then the client should
continue processing the event.
If a grab has occurred in the client and XFilterEvent
returns True, the client should ungrab the keyboard.
