XDestroyWindow
Syntax
XDestroyWindow(display, w)
Display *display;
Window w;
Arguments
| display
| Specifies the connection to the X server.
|
| w
| Specifies the window.
|
Description
The
XDestroyWindow()
function destroys the specified window as well as all of its subwindows and causes
the X server to generate a
DestroyNotify
event for each window.
The window should never be referenced again.
If the window specified by the w argument is mapped,
it is unmapped automatically.
The ordering of the
DestroyNotify
events is such that for any given window being destroyed,
DestroyNotify
is generated on any inferiors of the window before being generated on
the window itself.
The ordering among siblings and across subhierarchies is not otherwise
constrained.
If the window you specified is a root window, no windows are destroyed.
Destroying a mapped window will generate
Expose
events on other windows that were obscured by the window being destroyed.
XDestroyWindow()
can generate a
BadWindow
error.
Diagnostics
| BadWindow
| A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
