| <description summary="Protocol for exporting xdg surface handles"> |
| This protocol specifies a way for making it possible to reference a surface |
| of a different client. With such a reference, a client can, by using the |
| interfaces provided by this protocol, manipulate the relationship between |
| its own surfaces and the surface of some other client. For example, stack |
| some of its own surface above the other clients surface. |
| |
| In order for a client A to get a reference of a surface of client B, client |
| B must first export its surface using xdg_exporter.export. Upon doing this, |
| client B will receive a handle (a unique string) that it may share with |
| client A in some way (for example D-Bus). After client A has received the |
| handle from client B, it may use xdg_importer.import to create a reference |
| to the surface client B just exported. See the corresponding requests for |
| details. |
| |
| A possible use case for this is out-of-process dialogs. For example when a |
| sandboxed client without file system access needs the user to select a file |
| on the file system, given sandbox environment support, it can export its |
| surface, passing the exported surface handle to an unsandboxed process that |
| can show a file browser dialog and stack it above the sandboxed client's |
| surface. |
| |
| Warning! The protocol described in this file is experimental and backward |
| incompatible changes may be made. Backward compatible changes may be added |
| together with the corresponding interface version bump. Backward |
| incompatible changes are done by bumping the version number in the protocol |
| and interface names and resetting the interface version. Once the protocol |
| is to be declared stable, the 'z' prefix and the version number in the |
| protocol and interface names are removed and the interface version number is |
| reset. |
