Pixmap XCreatePixmap(display, d, width, height, depth)
Display *display;
Drawable d;
unsigned int width, height;
unsigned int depth;
display | Specifies the connection to the X server. |
d | Specifies which screen the pixmap is created on. |
width height | Specify the width and height, which define the dimensions of the pixmap. |
depth | Specifies the depth of the pixmap. |
The server uses the specified drawable to determine on which screen to create the pixmap. The pixmap can be used only on this screen and only with other drawables of the same depth (see XCopyPlane() for an exception to this rule). The initial contents of the pixmap are undefined.
XCreatePixmap() can generate BadAlloc , BadDrawable , and BadValue errors.
BadAlloc | The server failed to allocate the requested source or server memory. |
BadDrawable | A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap. |
BadValue | Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request. Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a set of alternatives can generate this error. |
