Detailed Description

internal wrapper struct for X11 'geometry' definition

The geometry structure is a wrapper for the X11 functions that specify the individual parameters for a geometry, such as XGetGeometry. Instead of passing 5 integers, you pass the pointer to a structure for the X11workbench API functions. This provides many advantages over the 'individual parameter' method as well as providing a structure for cacheing geometry information.

typedef struct _WBGeom_
{
  int x, y;
  unsigned int width, height, border;
} WB_GEOM;

Use of 'int' and 'unsigned int' for the various parameter is consistent with the various 'Geom' functions, which typically use 'int *' for returned parameters, as shown:

Status XGetGeometry(Display *display, Drawable d, Window *root_return,
                    int *x_return, int *y_return,
                    unsigned int *width_return, unsigned int *height_return,
                    unsigned int *border_return, unsigned int *depth_return);
