=========================

NAME
----

   XIGrabEnter, XIUngrabEnter, XIGrabFocusIn, XIUngrabFocusIn -
   grab/ungrab enter or focus in events.

SYNOPSIS
--------

   #include <X11/extensions/XInput.h>

   int XIGrabEnter( Display *display,
                    int deviceid,
                    Window grab_window
                    Cursor cursor,
                    int grab_mode,
                    int paired_device_mode,
                    Bool owner_events,
                    XIEventMask *mask,
                    int num_modifiers,
                    XIGrabModifiers *modifiers_inout);

   int XIUngrabEnter( Display *display,
                      int deviceid,
                      Window grab_window
                      int num_modifiers,
                      XIGrabModifiers *modifiers);

   int XIGrabFocusIn ( Display *display,
                       int deviceid,
                       Window grab_window
                       int grab_mode,
                       int paired_device_mode,
                       Bool owner_events,
                       XIEventMask *mask,
                       int num_modifiers,
                       XIGrabModifiers *modifiers_inout);

   int XIUngrabFocusIn( Display *display,
                        int deviceid,
                        Window grab_window
                        int num_modifiers,
                        XIGrabModifiers *modifiers);
   display
          Specifies the connection to the X server.

   device
          Specifies the device that is to be grabbed or released

   num_modifiers
          Number of elements in modifiers or modifiers_return

   modifiers
          Specifies the set of latched and base modifiers or
          XIAnyModifier to ungrab. The data type is for
          consistency with the respective grab request and the
          status code of the XIGrabModifiers struct is ignored.

   modifiers_inout
          Specifies the set of latched and base modifiers or
          XIAnyModifier to grab. Returns the modifiers that could
          not be grabbed and their status code.

   grab_window
          Specifies the grab window.

   owner_events
          Specifies a Boolean value that indicates whether the are
          to be reported as usual or reported with respect to the
          grab window.

   mask
          Specifies the event mask.

   grab_mode
          Specifies further processing of events from this device.
          You can pass GrabModeSync or GrabModeAsync.

   paired_device_mode
          Specifies further processing of events from the paired
          master device. You can pass GrabModeSync or
          GrabModeAsync. If deviceid specifies a floating slave
          device, this parameter is ignored.

DESCRIPTION
-----------

   XIGrabEnter and XIGrabFocusIn establish a passive grab. The
   modifier device for a enter grab is the paired master device if
   deviceid specifies a master pointer. Otherwise, the modifier
   device is the device specified with deviceid.

   For XIGrabEnter and XIGrabFocusIn, in the future, the device is
   actively grabbed (as for XIGrabDevice, the last-grab time is
   set to the time at which the pointer/focus entered window) if
   the device is not grabbed and the pointer has entered the
   grab_window or the focus has been set to the grab_window when
   the specified modifier keys are logically down on the modifier
   device and no other buttons or modifier keys are logically
   down.

   The interpretation of the remaining arguments is as for
   XIGrabDevice. The active grab is terminated automatically when
   the pointer leaves the window or the focus is set to a
   different window (independent of the logical state of the
   modifier keys).

   If the device is an attached slave device, the device is
   automatically detached from the master device when the grab
   activates and reattached to the same master device when the
   grab deactivates. If the master device is removed while the
   device is floating as a result of a grab, the device remains
   floating once the grab deactivates.

   Note that the logical state of a device (as seen by client
   applications) may lag the physical state if device event
   processing is frozen.

   This request overrides all previous grabs by the same client of
   the same type and modifier combinations on the same window. A
   modifiers of XIAnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the grab
   request for all possible modifier combinations (including the
   combination of no modifiers). It is not required that all
   modifiers specified have currently assigned KeyCodes.

   If some other client has already issued a XIGrabEnter or
   XIGrabFocusIn  on the same window, a BadAccess error results.
   When using XIAnyModifier, the request fails completely, and a
   XIBadAccess error results (no grabs are established) if there
   is a conflicting grab for any combination. XIGrabEnter and
   XIGrabFocusin have no effect on an active grab.

   XIGrabEnter and XIGrabFocusIn can generate BadDevice,
   BadMatch, BadValue, and BadWindow errors.

   XIUngrabEnter and XIUngrabFocusIn releases the passive grab on
   the specified window if it was grabbed by this client. A
   modifier of XIAnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the ungrab
   request for all possible modifier combinations, including the
   combination of no modifiers. XIUngrabEnter and XIUngrabFocusIn
   have no effect on an active grab.

   XIUngrabEnter and XIUngrabFocusIn can generate BadDevice,
   BadMatch, BadValue and BadWindow errors.

DIAGNOSTICS
-----------

   BadDevice
          An invalid deviceid was specified.

   BadMatch
          This error may occur if XIGrabEnter specified a device
          that has no valuators, or XIGrabFocusIn specified a device
          that has no keys.

   BadValue
          Some numeric value falls outside the range of values
          accepted by the request. Unless a specific range is
          specified for an argument, the full range defined by the
          argument's type is accepted. Any argument defined as a
          set of alternatives can generate this error.

   BadWindow
          A value for a Window argument does not name a defined
          Window.
