Description
The
XSync()
function
flushes the output buffer and then waits until all requests have been received
and processed by the X server.
Any errors generated must be handled by the error handler.
For each protocol error received by Xlib,
XSync()
calls the client application's error handling routine (see "Using the Default Error Handlers").
Any events generated by the server are enqueued into the library's
event queue.
Finally, if you passed
False,
XSync()
does not discard the events in the queue.
If you passed
True,
XSync()
discards all events in the queue,
including those events that were on the queue before
XSync()
was called.
Client applications seldom need to call
XSync().
