atspi-registry

atspi-registry — A service through which applications providing accessibility services can rendezvous with consumers of those services.

Description

A service through which applications providing accessibility services (servers) can rendezvous with consumers of those services (Assistive Technologies). The atspi-registry is the first "port of call" for accessible applications and for assistive technologies wishing to query and interact with those applications.

Details

atspi_key_definition_get_type ()

GType               atspi_key_definition_get_type       ();


atspi_get_desktop_count ()

gint                atspi_get_desktop_count             ();

Gets the number of virtual desktops. NOTE: multiple virtual desktops are not implemented yet; as a consequence, this function always returns 1.

Returns :

a gint indicating the number of active virtual desktops.

atspi_get_desktop ()

AtspiAccessible *   atspi_get_desktop                   (gint i);

Gets the virtual desktop indicated by index i. NOTE: currently multiple virtual desktops are not implemented; as a consequence, any i value different from 0 will not return a virtual desktop - instead it will return NULL.

i :

a gint indicating which of the accessible desktops is to be returned.

Returns :

a pointer to the i-th virtual desktop's AtspiAccessible representation. [transfer full]

atspi_get_desktop_list ()

GArray *            atspi_get_desktop_list              ();

Gets the list of virtual desktops. On return, list will point to a newly-created, NULL terminated array of virtual desktop pointers. It is the responsibility of the caller to free this array when it is no longer needed. NOTE: currently multiple virtual desktops are not implemented; this implementation always returns a Garray with a single AtspiAccessible desktop.

Returns :

a GArray of desktops. [transfer full]

atspi_register_keystroke_listener ()

gboolean            atspi_register_keystroke_listener   (AtspiDeviceListener *listener,
                                                         GArray *key_set,
                                                         AtspiKeyMaskType modmask,
                                                         AtspiKeyEventMask event_types,
                                                         AtspiKeyListenerSyncType sync_type,
                                                         GError **error);

Registers a listener for keystroke events, either pre-emptively for all windows (ATSPI_KEYLISTENER_ALL_WINDOWS), non-preemptively (ATSPI_KEYLISTENER_NOSYNC), or pre-emptively at the toolkit level (ATSPI_KEYLISTENER_CANCONSUME). If ALL_WINDOWS or CANCONSUME are used, the event is consumed upon receipt if one of listener's callbacks returns TRUE (other sync_type values may be available in the future).

listener :

a pointer to the AtspiDeviceListener for which keystroke events are requested.

key_set :

a pointer to the AtspiKeyDefinition array indicating which keystroke events are requested, or NULL to indicate that all keycodes and keyvals for the specified modifier set are to be included. [element-type AtspiKeyDefinition][allow-none]

modmask :

an AtspiKeyMaskType mask indicating which key event modifiers must be set in combination with keys, events will only be reported for key events for which all modifiers in modmask are set. If you wish to listen for events with multiple modifier combinations, you must call atspi_register_keystroke_listener once for each combination.

event_types :

an AtspiKeyMaskType mask indicating which types of key events are requested (ATSPI_KEY_PRESSED etc.).

sync_type :

an AtspiKeyListenerSyncType parameter indicating the behavior of the notification/listener transaction.

error :

a pointer to a NULL GError pointer, or NULL. [allow-none]

Returns :

TRUE if successful, otherwise FALSE.

atspi_deregister_keystroke_listener ()

gboolean            atspi_deregister_keystroke_listener (AtspiDeviceListener *listener,
                                                         GArray *key_set,
                                                         AtspiKeyMaskType modmask,
                                                         AtspiKeyEventMask event_types,
                                                         GError **error);

Removes a keystroke event listener from the registry's listener queue, ceasing notification of events with modifiers matching modmask.

listener :

a pointer to the AtspiDeviceListener for which keystroke events are requested.

key_set :

a pointer to the AtspiKeyDefinition array indicating which keystroke events are requested, or NULL to indicate that all keycodes and keyvals for the specified modifier set are to be included. [element-type AtspiKeyDefinition][allow-none]

modmask :

the key modifier mask for which this listener is to be 'deregistered' (of type AtspiKeyMaskType).

event_types :

an AtspiKeyMaskType mask indicating which types of key events were requested (ATSPI_KEY_PRESSED, etc.).

error :

a pointer to a NULL GError pointer, or NULL. [allow-none]

Returns :

TRUE if successful, otherwise FALSE.

atspi_generate_keyboard_event ()

gboolean            atspi_generate_keyboard_event       (glong keyval,
                                                         const gchar *keystring,
                                                         AtspiKeySynthType synth_type,
                                                         GError **error);

Synthesizes a keyboard event (as if a hardware keyboard event occurred in the current UI context).

keyval :

a gint indicating the keycode or keysym of the key event being synthesized.

keystring :

an (optional) UTF-8 string which, if synth_type is ATSPI_KEY_STRING, indicates a 'composed' keyboard input string being synthesized; this type of keyboard event synthesis does not emulate hardware keypresses but injects the string as though a composing input method (such as XIM) were used. [allow-none]

synth_type :

an AtspiKeySynthType flag indicating whether keyval is to be interpreted as a keysym rather than a keycode (ATSPI_KEY_SYM) or a string (ATSPI_KEY_STRING), or whether to synthesize ATSPI_KEY_PRESS, ATSPI_KEY_RELEASE, or both (ATSPI_KEY_PRESSRELEASE).

error :

a pointer to a NULL GError pointer, or NULL. [allow-none]

Returns :

TRUE if successful, otherwise FALSE.

atspi_generate_mouse_event ()

gboolean            atspi_generate_mouse_event          (glong x,
                                                         glong y,
                                                         const gchar *name,
                                                         GError **error);

Synthesizes a mouse event at a specific screen coordinate. Most AT clients should use the AccessibleAction interface when tempted to generate mouse events, rather than this method. Event names: b1p = button 1 press; b2r = button 2 release; b3c = button 3 click; b2d = button 2 double-click; abs = absolute motion; rel = relative motion.

x :

a glong indicating the screen x coordinate of the mouse event.

y :

a glong indicating the screen y coordinate of the mouse event.

name :

a string indicating which mouse event to be synthesized (e.g. "b1p", "b1c", "b2r", "rel", "abs").

error :

a pointer to a NULL GError pointer, or NULL. [allow-none]

Returns :

TRUE if successful, otherwise FALSE.
