XAllocIconSize(3)

NAME

       XAllocIconSize, XSetIconSizes, XGetIconSizes, XIconSize - allocate icon
       size structure and set or read a window's WM_ICON_SIZES property

SYNTAX

       XIconSize *XAllocIconSize(void);

       int XSetIconSizes(Display *display, Window w, XIconSize *size_list, int
       count);

       Status XGetIconSizes(Display *display, Window w, XIconSize
       **size_list_return, int count_return);

ARGUMENTS

       display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       count     Specifies the number of items in the size list.

       count_return
                 Returns the number of items in the size list.

       size_list Specifies the size list.

       size_list_return
                 Returns the size list.

       w         Specifies the window.

DESCRIPTION

       The XAllocIconSize function allocates and returns a pointer to a XIcon-
       Size structure.  Note that all fields in the XIconSize structure are
       initially set to zero.  If insufficient memory is available, XAllocI-
       conSize returns NULL.  To free the memory allocated to this structure,
       use XFree.

       The XSetIconSizes function is used only by window managers to set the
       supported icon sizes.

       XSetIconSizes can generate BadAlloc and BadWindow errors.

       The XGetIconSizes function returns zero if a window manager has not set
       icon sizes; otherwise, it return nonzero.  XGetIconSizes should be
       called by an application that wants to find out what icon sizes would
       be most appreciated by the window manager under which the application
       is running.  The application should then use XSetWMHints to supply the
       window manager with an icon pixmap or window in one of the supported
       sizes.  To free the data allocated in size_list_return, use XFree.

       XGetIconSizes can generate a BadWindow error.

PROPERTIES

       WM_ICON_SIZES
                 The window manager may set this property on the root window
                 to specify the icon sizes it supports.  The C type of this
                 property is XIconSize.

STRUCTURES

       The XIconSize structure contains:

       typedef struct {
            int min_width, min_height;
            int max_width, max_height;
            int width_inc, height_inc;
       } XIconSize;

       The width_inc and height_inc members define an arithmetic progression
       of sizes (minimum to maximum) that represent the supported icon sizes.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc  The server failed to allocate the requested resource or
                 server memory.

       BadWindow A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
