About libxcb ============ libxcb provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, which replaces the current Xlib interface. It has several advantages over Xlib, including: - size: small, simple library, and lower memory footprint - latency hiding: batch several requests and wait for the replies later - direct protocol access: interface and protocol correspond exactly - 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. However, client programs, libraries, and toolkits will gain the most benefit from a native XCB port. Please report any issues you find to the freedesktop.org bug tracker, at: <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=XCB> Discussion about XCB occurs on the XCB mailing list: <mailto:xcb at lists.freedesktop.org> <http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xcb> You can obtain the latest development versions of XCB using GIT. For anonymous checkouts, use: git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xcb/libxcb For developers, use: git clone git+ssh://git.freedesktop.org/git/xcb/libxcb
