I can't find any clues.
you're a little confused, i believe. client-side software doesn't use the MIT-SHM unless its part of the Xlib implementation that talks to the X server. its just way to (drastically) reduce the amount of data passed over the serialized communication link with the server. but its very very low level; even GDK (the drawing kit) doesn't really mess with things at that level. if you are writing stuff that renders images, you have no reason to think about whether MIT-SHM exists or not - Xlib will take care of that for you. --p _______________________________________________ gtkmm-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtkmm-list
