<description summary="screen content capturing on client buffers">
This protocol allows clients to ask the compositor to copy part of the
screen content to a client buffer.
2018-06-22 21:31:33 +00:00
Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and
backward incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes
may be added together with the corresponding interface version bump.
Backward incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in
the protocol and interface names and resetting the interface version.
Once the protocol is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the
version number in the protocol and interface names are removed and the
interface version number is reset.

This object represents a single frame.
When created, a "buffer" event will be sent. The client will then be able
to send a "copy" request. If the capture is successful, the compositor
2018-06-23 17:41:40 +00:00
will send a "flags" followed by a "ready" event.
2018-06-22 21:31:33 +00:00
If the capture failed, the "failed" event is sent. This can happen anytime
before the "ready" event.
Once either a "ready" or a "failed" event is received, the client should
destroy the frame.

send a "copy" request.

for reading. This event includes the time at which presentation happened
at.
The timestamp is expressed as tv_sec_hi, tv_sec_lo, tv_nsec triples,
each component being an unsigned 32-bit value. Whole seconds are in
tv_sec which is a 64-bit value combined from tv_sec_hi and tv_sec_lo,
and the additional fractional part in tv_nsec as nanoseconds. Hence,
for valid timestamps tv_nsec must be in [0, 999999999]. The seconds part
may have an arbitrary offset at start.
2018-06-22 21:31:33 +00:00
After receiving this event, the client should destroy the object.
