Introduction 1.1. Project/Component Working Name: libXcursor 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Alan Coopersmith 1.3 Date of This Document: 24 August, 2007 4. Technical Description This project integrates libXcursor, xcursorgen, and associated data files from the X.Org community. These interfaces were introduced in XFree86 4.3.0 in 2003, and have continued into the X.Org releases starting with X11R6.7. While the documentation warns of potential incompatible change, that has not happened, and there has been no discussion in the community about making such a change anytime soon - and given the adoption of the library, incompatible change would likely result in a new API. Given that history, and the desire of some ISV's to use this library, we are establishing libXcursor as Uncommitted, and thus committing not to break existing binaries in patch/update releases. Interfaces added: libXcursor: This project delivers libXcursor.so.1 libraries in /usr/X11/lib & /usr/X11/lib/{sparcv9,amd64}, with the appropriate libXcursor.so symlinks, and the associated header in . libXcursor is a library that utilizes the X Render and X Fixes extensions to allow cursors beyond the basic 2-color cursor offered by the core X11 protocol. It includes an animated cursor format that supplies the cursor set to the X server and causes the X server to cycle through the images (so the clients don't have to resend the image for each update), and 32-bit RGBA cursors with alpha-blending for translucency. The API's and data formats provided in this library are described in the Xcursor man page provided in the case materials. xcursorgen: This project delivers /usr/X11/bin/xcursorgen, a helper application to transform cursor images from PNG graphics files into the format used by libXcursor. A man page for it may also be found in the case materials. Since this utility reads PNG files, it links with libpng12.so - but the output format does not use PNG format, so libXcursor itself does not depend on libpng12. /usr/share/icons//cursors: This project delivers some sample cursor "themes" into the specified directory. Which themes we deliver cursors for is subject to change and shouldn't be depended on by programs. Interfaces modified: libX11: To allow existing programs to have cursors matching the rest of the desktop, this project includes the X.Org modifications to the cursor functions in libX11. When the classic X cursor functions are called to set the cursor to one of the well-known cursor names from , the libX11 functions will attempt to dlopen() libXcursor.so.1 and use the matching libXcursor functions to display the appropriate cursor from the current cursor theme. No new functions are exposed via the libX11 API, only the possiblity of getting 32-bit cursors instead of 1-bit cursors from the classic API's.
