giiEventSend(3gii)

NAME
giiEventSend - inject an event into the input

SYNOPSIS
#include <ggi/gii.h>

int giiEventSend(gii_input_t inp, gii_event *ev); .SH "DESCRIPTION"

giiEventSend injects an event into the queue. Such events can be identified by (event->any.target == GII_EV_TARGET_QUEUE). There are three main uses for this function:

•   "Simulating" input for independent subprograms.

•   Sending events to externally attached programs via specialized "inputs", that are actually rather "outputs".

•   Sending command events to inputs, like querying the axis of a valuator device.

RETURN VALUE

giiEventSend returns 0 on success, or an error code otherwise.
