Loading an X11 Window System Profile

In the next example, the framework loads a profile associated with a particular X11 Window System visual. The KcsXWindow object converts the display, visual, and screen information into a profile loaded into the KCMS framework. Example 3-3 is a KCMS "C" API code excerpt that shows this.

Example 3-3 Loading an X11 Window System Profile

if ((dpy = XOpenDisplay(hostname)) == NULL) {
     fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't open the X display \n");
     exit(1);
 
}  

profileDesc.type = KcsWindowProfile;
profileDesc.desc.xwin.dpy = dpy; 
profileDesc.desc.xwin.visual = DefaultVisual(dpy,
              DefaultScreen(dpy)); 
profileDesc.desc.xwin.screen = DefaultScreen(dpy);  

status = KcsLoadProfile(&profile, &profileDesc, 
            KcsLoadAttributesNow); 
if (status != KCS_SUCCESS) {
     status = KcsGetLastError(&errDesc);
     fprintf(stderr,"KcsLoadProfile failed error = %s\n",
              errDesc.desc);
     exit(1); 
}

The only difference between this example and Example 3-2, is the type of KcsIO class loaded. That example showed how to load a KcsSolarisFile object rather than a KcsXWindow object.
