XHPSetInputDevice(3X)					 XHPSetInputDevice(3X)

NAME
       XHPSetInputDevice - Open a device for X input.

SYNOPSIS
       #include <X11/XHPlib.h>

       int XHPSetInputDevice (display, deviceid, mode)
	    Display   *display;
	    XID	      deviceid;
	    int	      mode;

ARGUMENTS
       display	   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       deviceid	   Specifies the ID of the desired device.

       mode	   Specifies the desired mode of access.

DESCRIPTION
       This request is part of an HP-proprietary extension to X.  Its
       functionality has been superseded by the standard X input device
       extension XOpenDevice request.  You should use XOpenDevice instead of
       XHPSetInputDevice if possible.

       This request is provided to support input devices other than the X
       keyboard device and the X pointer device.

       Client programs use the XHPSetInputDevice to open an input device for
       extended input and to close the device.	XHPSetInputDevice requires a
       mode parameter that specifies the request being requested (ON or OFF)
       and, if the request is ON,  whether the device should be opened as an
       extension to the X keyboard or pointer (SYSTEM_EVENTS), or as an
       independently selectable device (DEVICE_EVENTS).	 The value of the mode
       parameter is set by ORing together the above constants, which may be
       obtained by including the file <X11/XHPlib.h>.

       To open an input device as a device whose input can be selected
       independent of the X keyboard and X pointer, the client program would
       use the mode ON OR'd with the mode DEVICE_EVENTS.  To open an input
       device as an extension of the X keyboard or X pointer, the client
       program would use the mode ON or'd with the mode SYSTEM_EVENTS.	Valid
       values for the mode parameter are:

       ON | SYSTEM_EVENTS
       ON | DEVICE_EVENTS
       OFF

       This request will fail with a BadMode error if some other client is
       already using the device with a different mode.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadMode	   An invalid mode was specified.

       BadDevice   An invalid device ID was specified.

RETURN VALUE
       none
