KEYWORD     = 
= class Gdk::Display
Gdk::Display objects purpose are two fold:

* To grab/ungrab keyboard focus and mouse pointer
* To manage and provide information about the Gdk::Screen(s) available for this Gdk::Display

Gdk::Display objects are the GDK representation of the X Display which can be described as a workstation consisting of a keyboard a pointing device (such as a mouse) and one or more screens. It is used to open and keep track of various Gdk::Screen objects currently instanciated by the application. It is also used to grab and release the keyboard and the mouse pointer. 

== Object Hierarchy
* Object
  * GLib::Instantiatable
    * GLib::Object
      * Gdk::Display

== Class Methods
--- Gdk::Display.open(display_name)
    Opens a display. You need to call Gdk::Display#close when you don't need it. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * display_name: the name of the display to open
    * Returns: a Gdk::Display, or nil if the display could not be opened.
--- Gdk::Display.open(display_name){|display| ... }
    Opens a display and invoke the block, then closes it automatically. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * display_name: the name of the display to open
    * {|display| ... }: A block with opened display
      * display: Opened Gdk::Display
    * Returns: a Gdk::Display, or nil if the display could not be opened.

--- Gdk::Display.default
    Gets the default Gdk::Display. This is a convenience method for:
    Gdk::DisplayManager.get.default_display ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: a Gdk::Display, or nill if there is no default display

== Instance Methods
--- name
    Gets the name of the display. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: a String representing the display name

--- n_screens
    Gets the number of screen managed by the display. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: number of screens.

--- get_screen(screen_num)
    Returns a screen object for one of the screens of the display. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * screen_num: the screen number
    * Returns: the Gdk::Screen object

--- [screen_num]
    Same as get_screen.
    * screen_num: the screen number
    * Returns: the Gdk::Screen object

--- default_screen
    Get the default Gdk::Screen for display. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: the default Gdk::Screen object for display

--- pointer_ungrab(time)
    Release any pointer grab. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * time: a timestap (e.g. Gdk::Event::CURRENT_TIME).
    * Returns: self

--- keyboard_ungrab(time)
    Release any keyboard grab. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * time: a timestap (e.g. Gdk::Event::CURRENT_TIME).
    * Returns: self   

--- pointer_grabbed?
    Test if the pointer is grabbed. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: true if an active X pointer grab is in effect

--- beep
    Emits a short beep on display. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: self

--- sync
    Flushes any requests queued for the windowing system and waits until all requests have been handled. This is often used for making sure that the display is synchronized with the current state of the program. Calling Gdk::Display#sync before Gdk.error_trap_pop makes sure that any errors generated from earlier requests are handled before the error trap is removed.
    This is most useful for X11. On windowing systems where requests are handled synchronously, this method will do nothing. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: self

--- flush
    Flushes any requests queued for the windowing system; this happens automatically when the main loop blocks waiting for new events, but if your application is drawing without returning control to the main loop, you may need to call this function explicitely. A common case where this function needs to be called is when an application is executing drawing commands from a thread other than the thread where the main loop is running.
    This is most useful for X11. On windowing systems where requests are handled synchronously, this method will do nothing. ((*Since 2.4*))
    * Returns: self

--- close
    Closes the connection to the windowing system for the given display, and cleans up associated resources. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: self

--- devices
    Returns an Array of available input devices attached to display. The list is statically allocated and should not be freed. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: an Array of Gdk::Device

--- event
    Gets the next Gdk::Event to be processed for display, fetching events from the windowing system if necessary. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: the next Gdk::Event to be processed, or nil if no events are pending.

--- peek_event
    Gets a copy of the first Gdk::Event in the display's event queue, without removing the event from the queue. (Note that this function will not get more events from the windowing system. It only checks the events that have already been moved to the GDK event queue.)
    * Returns: a copy of the first Gdk::Event on the event queue, or nilL if no events are in the queue. 

--- put_event(event)
    Appends a copy of the given event onto the front of the event queue for display. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * event: a Gdk::Event.
    * Returns: self

--- double_click_time=(msec)

    Same as double_click_time=. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * msec: double click time in milliseconds (thousandths of a second)
    * Returns: self

--- double_click_distance=(distance)
    Sets the double click distance (two clicks within this distance count as a double click and result in a Gdk::Event::BUTTON2_PRESS event). See also Gdk::Display#double_click_time=. Applications should not set this, it is a global user-configured setting. ((*Since 2.4*))
    * distance: distance in pixels (Integer)
    * Returns: distance
--- set_double_click_distance(distance)
    Same as double_click_distance=. ((*Since 2.4*))
    * distance: distance in pixels (Integer)
    * Returns: self

--- pointer

    * Returns: [screen, x, y, mask]
       * screen: the Gdk::Screen that the cursor is on, or nil.
       * x: root window X coordinate of pointer.
       * y: root window Y coordinate of pointer.
       * mask: current modifier mask.

--- window_at_pointer
    Obtains the window underneath the mouse pointer, returning the location of that window in win_x, win_y for screen.  ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: [window, x, y]
       * window: the Gdk::Window under the mouse pointer, or nil if the window under the mouse pointer is not known to GDK (for example, belongs to another application).

    * Returns: The default group leader Gdk::Window for display

--- supports_selection_notification?
    Returns whether Gdk::EventOwnerChange events will be sent when the owner of a selection changes. ((*Since 2.6*))
    * Returns: true if Gdk::EventOwnerChange events will be sent.

    * Returns: true if the display supports clipboard persistance.

--- store_clipboard(clipboard_window, time, targets)
    Issues a request to the clipboard manager to store the clipboard data. On X11, this is a special program that works according to the freedesktop clipboard specification, available at ((<URL:http://www.freedesktop.org/Standards/clipboard-manager-spec>)). ((*Since 2.6*))

    * Returns: the core pointer Gdk::Device

--- warp_pointer(screen, x, y)
    Warps the pointer of display to the point x,y on the specified screen, unless the pointer is confined to a window by a grab, in which case it will be moved as far as allowed by the grab. Warping the pointer creates events as if the user had moved the mouse instantaneously to the destination. Note that the pointer should normally be under the control of the user. This function was added to cover some rare use cases like keyboard navigation support for the color picker in the Gtk::ColorSelectionDialog. ((*Since 2.8*))
    * screen: the screen of display to warp the pointer to (Gdk::Screen)
    * x: the x coordinate of the destination (Fixnum)

    * Returns: self
--- ungrab
    Ungrab display after it has been grabbed with Gdk::Display#grab. ((* X11 only *)) ((*Since 2.2*))
    * Returns: self


--- register_standard_event_type(event_base, n_events)
    Registers interest in receiving extension events with type codes between event_base and event_base + n_events - 1. The registered events must have the window field in the same place as core X events (this is not the case for e.g. XKB extension events).
    If an event type is registered, events of this type will go through global and window-specific filters. Unregistered events will only go through global filters. GDK may register the events of some X extensions on its own.
    This method should only be needed in unusual circumstances, e.g. when filtering XInput extension events on the root window.((* X11 only *)) ((*Since 2.2*))
    * event_base: first event type code to register (Integer)
    * n_events: number of event type codes to register (Integer)
    * Returns: self


== Signals

    The ::closed signal is emitted when the connection to the windowing system for display is closed. ((*Since 2.2*))
    * self: Gdk::Display
    * is_error: true if the display was closed due to an error, otherwise false
