The manual page says that it's "implementation dependent", and that it applies to "WM_CLASS". _NET_WM_CLASS would be the corresponding property in EWMH, https://specifications.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-1.3.html but it's not mentioned there (perhaps a few applications use it anyway). If you find some application which does use it, XSetClassHint is probably not the way to update it. > ``` > XStoreName(xw.dpy, xw.win, xw.win_name); > XSetIconName(xw.dpy, xw.win, xw.win_name); > > XChangeProperty( xw.dpy, xw.win, > XInternAtom( xw.dpy, "_NET_WM_NAME", False ), > XInternAtom( xw.dpy, "UTF8_STRING", False ), > 8, PropModeReplace, ( unsigned char * ) xw.win_name, > strlen( xw.win_name ) ); > XChangeProperty( xw.dpy, xw.win, > XInternAtom( xw.dpy, "_NET_WM_ICON_NAME", False ), > XInternAtom( xw.dpy, "UTF8_STRING", False ), > 8, PropModeReplace, ( unsigned char * ) xw.win_name, > strlen( xw.win_name ) ); > > XClassHint * classhint = XAllocClassHint(); > if( classhint ) > { > classhint->res_name = classhint->res_class = ( char * ) xw.win_name; > XSetClassHint( xw.dpy, xw.win, classhint ); > XFree( classhint ); > } > ``` > > > Best regards > - Rafał -- Thomas E.
