XFlushGC()							    XFlushGC()

Name
  XFlushGC – force cached GC changes to the server.

Synopsis
  void XFlushGC(display, gc)
	 Display *display;
	 GC gc;

Arguments
  display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

  gc	    Specifies the graphics context.

Availability
  Release 5 and later.

Description
  Xlib	normally  defers sending changes to the components of a GC to the
  server until a graphics function is actually called with that GC.  This
  permits batching of component changes into a single server request.  In
  some circumstances, however, it may be  necessary  for  the  client  to
  explicitly  force  sending  of  the  changes to the server.  An example
  might be when a protocol extension uses the GC indirectly,  in  such	a
  way  that the extension interface cannot know what GC will be used.  In
  a case like this, the extension library could use XFlushGC()	to  force
  any cached changes to the GC it will use to be flushed to the server.
