Hi,
i often read about xcb, the xlib's successor. but i simply can't understand its function. i don't get it. furthermore, are there already programs using it (seems like toolkits such as qt, gtk+ and cairo??)? what is its advantage? is it already in the xserver? or is it just planed that in a long distant future, xcb is going to make xlib obsolete?
can someone explain me it? thanks...
edit: http://www.linuxshowcase.org/2001/fu...sey/massey.pdf this all sounds great but doesn't help. and what's about its current status? already part of xorg?
