NAME

       XIQueryVersion - announce and query the support XI2 version.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <X11/extensions/XInput2.h>

       Status XIQueryVersion( Display *display,
                              int *major_version_inout,
                              int *minor_version_inout);

       display
              Specifies the connection to the X server.

       major_version_inout
              Specifies the client´s supported XI2 version, and
              returns the server´s supported version.

       minor_version_inout
              Specifies the client´s supported XI2 version, and
              returns the server´s supported version.

DESCRIPTION

           XIQueryVersion announces the client´s supported XI2 version to
           the server and returns server´s supported X Input version. Clients
           are required to use XIQueryVersion instead of XGetExtensionVersion
           if they use XI2 calls. The server may treat a client differently
           depending on the supported version announced by the client.
           The major_version_inout must be 2 or greater, otherwise a BadValue
           error occurs.

           If the server does not support XI2, XIQueryVersion returns BadRequest
           to the client. Otherwise, XIQueryVersion returns Success. In both
           cases major_version_inout and minor_version_inout are set to the
           server´s supported version.

           XIQueryVersion can generate a BadValue error.

EXAMPLES

           int rc;
           int major = 2;
           int minor = 0;

           rc = XIQueryVersion(dpy, &major, &minor);
           if (rc == Success)
               printf("XI2 supported. (%d.%d)\n", major, minor);
           else if (rc == BadRequest)
               printf("No XI2 support. (%d.%d only)\n", major, minor);
           else
               printf("Internal error\n");

DIAGNOSTICS

           BadValue
                  A value is outside of the permitted range.
