Hi, I need to send some user-defined value (string/integer) along with the x window creation api (XCreateWindow / XCreateSimpleWindow) in order to differentiate the window from others and can retrieve that value inside X server to use for internal purpose.
Something like g_object_set_data() in gtk, which allows user to set an association from user-defined strings to pointers. Is there a way already available in Xlib, like having a reserved attribute/parameter which a user can use to pass some value to the window creation api. (or) Should i add a new attribute to the XSetWindowAttributes structure which can be ignored by all the windows except my special window for which i can set that attribute?
