## Object Hierarchy

        GObject
        ╰── GdkDisplay

## Includes

    #include <gdk/gdk.h>

## Description

GdkDisplay objects purpose are two fold:

- To manage and provide information about input devices (pointers and keyboards)

- To manage and provide information about the available GdkScreens

GdkDisplay objects are the GDK representation of an X Display, which can be described as a workstation consisting of a keyboard, a pointing device (such as a mouse) and one or more screens. It is used to open and keep track of various GdkScreen objects currently instantiated by the application. It is also used to access the keyboard(s) and mouse pointer(s) of the display.

Most of the input device handling has been factored out into the separate GdkDeviceManager object. Every display has a device manager, which you can obtain using `gdk_display_get_device_manager()`.

## Functions

### gdk_display_sync ()

    void
    gdk_display_sync (GdkDisplay *display);

Flushes any requests queued for the windowing system and waits until all requests have been handled. This is often used for making sure that the display is synchronized with the current state of the program. Calling `gdk_display_sync()` before `gdk_error_trap_pop()` makes sure that any errors generated from earlier requests are handled before the error trap is removed.

This is most useful for X11. On windowing systems where requests are handled synchronously, this function will do nothing.

#### Parameters

display | a GdkDisplay |

Since: 2.2

### gdk_display_flush ()

    void
    gdk_display_flush (GdkDisplay *display);

Flushes any requests queued for the windowing system; this happens automatically when the main loop blocks waiting for new events, but if your application is drawing without returning control to the main loop, you may need to call this function explicitly. A common case where this function needs to be called is when an application is executing drawing commands from a thread other than the thread where the main loop is running.

This is most useful for X11. On windowing systems where requests are handled synchronously, this function will do nothing.

#### Parameters

display | a GdkDisplay |

Since: 2.4

### gdk_display_close ()

    void
    gdk_display_close (GdkDisplay *display);

Closes the connection to the windowing system for the given display, and cleans up associated resources.

#### Parameters

display | a GdkDisplay |

Since: 2.2

### gdk_display_is_closed ()

    gboolean
    gdk_display_is_closed (GdkDisplay *display);

Finds out if the display has been closed.

#### Parameters

display | a GdkDisplay |

#### Returns

`TRUE` if the display is closed.

Since: 2.22

### gdk_display_get_event ()

    GdkEvent *
    gdk_display_get_event (GdkDisplay *display);

Gets the next GdkEvent to be processed for `display` , fetching events from the windowing system if necessary.

#### Parameters

#### Returns

the next GdkEvent to be processed, or `NULL` if no events are pending. The returned GdkEvent should be freed with `gdk_event_free()`.

[nullable]

Since: 2.2

### gdk_display_peek_event ()

    GdkEvent *
    gdk_display_peek_event (GdkDisplay *display);

#### Parameters

display | a GdkDisplay |

#### Returns

a copy of the first GdkEvent on the event queue, or `NULL` if no events are in the queue. The returned GdkEvent should be freed with `gdk_event_free()`.
