Public bug reported: The pointer barrier event API we've patched in to libXfixes has moved upstream in Xserver 1.14. However, the API has changed.
The barrier events and pointer release API is now in the input lib, libXi as of version 1.6.99.1 . It should be reasonably easy to port to the new API: Peter Hutterer's blog post¹ describes how to use it. The main differences are that you need to add the barrier event mask to the XI event mask, rather than window event mask, and that it now uses generic events, so you need to allocate the event data before using it and free the event data after using it XGetEventData/XFreeEventData. ¹: http://who-t.blogspot.com.au/2012/12/whats-new-in-xi-23-pointer- barrier.html ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1097991 Title: Port to new barrier event API To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1097991/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
