Hi Alex, > Why do you have to access it through the same display though? The > drawable is just an id for the pixmap, and its the same independent on > what connection to the x server (==display) you use. Simply because it doesn't work, it generates BadDrawable X error. Check out the code below: <code> /* test.c * gcc test.c -o test -g -Wall `pkg-config --cflags --libs gdk-2.0` */
#include <gdk/gdk.h> #include <X11/Xlib.h> #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char** argv) { gdk_init(&argc, &argv); Display* display = XOpenDisplay(NULL); if (!display) return -1; Drawable xid = XCreatePixmap(display, DefaultRootWindow(display), 20, 20, 24); GdkPixmap* pixmap = gdk_pixmap_foreign_new_for_display(gdk_display_get_default(), xid); printf("Foreign pixmap = %p\n", pixmap); return 0; } </code> gdk_pixmap_foreign_new_for_display generates BadDrawable. This example shows what I eventually need.
