./x11/libxcb, X protocol C-language Binding

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: pkgsrc-2009Q4, Version: 1.5, Package name: libxcb-1.5, Maintainer: reed

The libxcb package provides a replacement for the current Xlib interface.
Some of its advantages include:
- size: small library and lower memory footprint
- latency hiding: batch several requests and wait for the replies later
- direct protocol access: one-to-one mapping between interface and protocol
- proven thread support: transparently access XCB from multiple threads
- easy extension implementation: interfaces auto-generated from XML-XCB

Xlib can also use XCB as a transport layer, allowing software to make
requests and receive responses with both, which eases porting to XCB.

Depend on py-xcbgen that has py-expat dependency.
There are some 1.6 packages (post-python2{5,6} changes) that don't pull
py-expat in and fail.
