Thanks. I read about X11, and i understand that i'll need to observe the
keyPress events, and fetch the keys and associate them with the process that
has the keyboard focus.
I have two issues.
1- I am using the latest Solaris Express Developer Edition 01/08, and I believe
it to have all the probes available for Xserver. Running # dtrace -l -n
'Xserver*:::', returns me this:
ID PROVIDER MODULE FUNCTION NAME
4 Xserver621 Xorg CloseDownClient
client-disconnect
5 Xserver621 Xorg Dispatch
request-done
6 Xserver621 Xorg Dispatch
request-start
7 Xserver621 Xorg AddResource
resource-alloc
8 Xserver621 Xorg FreeClientResources
resource-free
9 Xserver621 Xorg FreeClientNeverRetainResources
resource-free
10 Xserver621 Xorg FreeResourceByType
resource-free
11 Xserver621 Xorg FreeResource
resource-free
12 Xserver621 Xorg WriteEventsToClient send-event
Now, there are a few probes missing here including client-auth for
ClientAuthorized. Are these deprecated, or is my system missing them?
Secondly, I am trying to understand the xEvent structure to retrieve the key
that is pressed. But my approach is more of a trial and error and adhoc. Is
there any way to understand xEvent structure and other code more clearly to get
to know more about each field, beside the data structures only?
Please state any script fragments if that may help. Thanks a lot.
