NAME
giiEventSend - Inject an event into the input
SYNOPSIS
#include <ggi/gii.h> int giiEventSend(gii_input_t inp, gii_event *ev);
DESCRIPTION
giiEventSend injects an event into the queue. Such events can be identified by (event->any.target == GII_EV_TARGET_QUEUE). There are three main uses for this function:
- 1
-
Simulating input for independent subprograms.
- 2
-
Sending events to externally attached programs via specialized inputs, that are actually rather outputs.
- 3
-
Sending command events to inputs, like querying the axis of a valuator device.
RETURN VALUE
giiEventSend returns 0 on success, or an gii-error(3) code otherwise.
