NAME
xcb_ungrab_pointer - release the pointer
SYNOPSIS
#include <xcb/xproto.h>
Request function
xcb_void_cookie_t xcb_ungrab_pointer(xcb_connection_t *conn,
xcb_timestamp_t time);
REQUEST ARGUMENTS
conn The XCB connection to X11.
time Timestamp to avoid race conditions when running X over the
network.
The pointer will not be released if time is earlier than the
last-pointer-grab time or later than the current X server
time.
DESCRIPTION
Releases the pointer and any queued events if you actively grabbed the
pointer before using xcb_grab_pointer, xcb_grab_button or within a nor-
mal button press.
EnterNotify and LeaveNotify events are generated.
RETURN VALUE
Returns an xcb_void_cookie_t. Errors (if any) have to be handled in the
event loop.
If you want to handle errors directly with xcb_request_check instead,
use xcb_ungrab_pointer_checked. See xcb-requests(3) for details.
ERRORS
This request does never generate any errors.
