我正在一个已经在使用xcb的项目中,需要获得单个输出的分辨率而不是组合屏幕的分辨率。我可以使用xcb的RandR扩展名吗?如果是这样,我该如何使用xcb_connection_t对象执行此操作。

最佳答案

我也在寻找答案。我不知道您是否成功,但是由于您尚未回答此问题,所以我想您还没有成功。

对于那些正在寻找如何执行此操作的人,您必须了解XCB通常是如何工作的。这对于RandR XCB扩展尤为重要。您可能知道要从X服务器获取一些信息,您首先需要使用请求对其进行查询。在发送请求后使用XCB的情况下,您将获得一个 cookie ,其中存储了已发送请求的 ID 。为什么需要这样的cookie?原因很简单而且很明显-要从X服务器获得答复,我们需要使用我们已发送的请求ID来请求它(以便服务器知道您想要答案的请求)。

为了更清楚一点,这里是日常生活中的一个简单示例-想象一下一个调酒师的内存力非常短,所以它像这样:

client   : "I'd like to order a beer."
bartender: "OK, I'll get you a beer."
*bartender handles a ticket with an ID of the beer order to the client*
*client waits and waits and then he approaches bartender*
client   : "Dude, give me my beer finally, here's your damn ticket"
*client handles the ticket to bartender, who looks for the order from the
 ticket in his order book and when he finds it he replies*
bartender: "Here's your beer, enjoy."

好的,为什么XCB不能简单地一次发送请求并获得答案呢?好吧,这正是Xlib的工作方式,事实证明,在某些情况下XCB的速度提高了117倍。如果您想了解更多信息,请阅读XCB教程中的Basic XCB Notions

回到问题-如何获得输出(或更确切地说是CRTC)的分辨率?这是我的操作的最小化版本:
#include <cstdio>
#include <xcb/xcb.h>
#include <xcb/randr.h>

int main()
{
    //Open connection to X server
    xcb_connection_t* XConnection = xcb_connect(0, 0);

    //Get the first X screen
    xcb_screen_t* XFirstScreen = xcb_setup_roots_iterator(
                               xcb_get_setup(XConnection)).data;
    //Generate ID for the X window
    xcb_window_t XWindowDummy = xcb_generate_id(XConnection);

    //Create dummy X window
    xcb_create_window(XConnection, 0, XWindowDummy, XFirstScreen->root,
                      0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);

    //Flush pending requests to the X server
    xcb_flush(XConnection);

    //Send a request for screen resources to the X server
    xcb_randr_get_screen_resources_cookie_t screenResCookie = {};
    screenResCookie = xcb_randr_get_screen_resources(XConnection,
                                                     XWindowDummy);

    //Receive reply from X server
    xcb_randr_get_screen_resources_reply_t* screenResReply = {};
    screenResReply = xcb_randr_get_screen_resources_reply(XConnection,
                     screenResCookie, 0);

    int crtcs_num = 0;
    xcb_randr_crtc_t* firstCRTC;

    //Get a pointer to the first CRTC and number of CRTCs
    //It is crucial to notice that you are in fact getting
    //an array with firstCRTC being the first element of
    //this array and crtcs_length - length of this array
    if(screenResReply)
    {
        crtcs_num = xcb_randr_get_screen_resources_crtcs_length(screenResReply);

        firstCRTC = xcb_randr_get_screen_resources_crtcs(screenResReply);
    }
    else
        return -1;

    //Array of requests to the X server for CRTC info
    xcb_randr_get_crtc_info_cookie_t* crtcResCookie = new
               xcb_randr_get_crtc_info_cookie_t[crtcs_num];
    for(int i = 0; i < crtcs_num; i++)
        crtcResCookie[i] = xcb_randr_get_crtc_info(XConnection,
                                            *(firstCRTC+i), 0);
    //Array of pointers to replies from X server
    xcb_randr_get_crtc_info_reply_t** crtcResReply = new
               xcb_randr_get_crtc_info_reply_t*[crtcs_num];
    for(int i = 0; i < crtcs_num; i++)
        crtcResReply[i] = xcb_randr_get_crtc_info_reply(XConnection,
                                             crtcResCookie[i], 0);
    //Self-explanatory
    for(int i = 0; i < crtcs_num; i++)
    {
        if(crtcResReply[i])
        {
            printf("CRTC[%i] INFO:\n", i);
            printf("x-off\t: %i\n", crtcResReply[i]->x);
            printf("y-off\t: %i\n", crtcResReply[i]->y);
            printf("width\t: %i\n", crtcResReply[i]->width);
            printf("height\t: %i\n\n", crtcResReply[i]->height);
        }
    }

    xcb_disconnect(XConnection);

    return 0;
}

输出示例:
CRTC[0] INFO:
x-off   : 1920
y-off   : 0
width   : 1920
height  : 1200

CRTC[1] INFO:
x-off   : 0
y-off   : 0
width   : 1920
height  : 1200

CRTC[2] INFO:
x-off   : 0
y-off   : 0
width   : 0
height  : 0

CRTC[3] INFO:
x-off   : 0
y-off   : 0
width   : 0
height  : 0

如果愿意,可以使用vector和诸如此类的方法来提高代码的可读性,而不是使用带有指针的动态分配,但是我认为这并不难理解。

我还是XCB编程的新手,那里的PROBABLY是更好的方法,但是这种方法似乎一点也不差。我花了大量时间试图理解这一点,所以我希望它能对某人有所帮助。
