NAME

XDrawRectangle, XDrawRectangles - draw rectangles

SYNTAX

XDrawRectangle(display, d, gc, x, y, width, height)
      Display *display;
      Drawable d;
      GC gc;
      int x, y;
      unsigned int width, height;

XDrawRectangles(display, d, gc, rectangles, nrectangles)
      Display *display;
      Drawable d;
      GC gc;
      XRectangle rectangles[];
      int nrectangles;

ARGUMENTS

d         Specifies the drawable.

display   Specifies the connection to the XWIN server.

gc        Specifies the GC.

nrectangles

Specifies the number of rectangles in the array.

rectangles

Specifies a pointer to an array of rectangles.

width
height    Specify the width and height, which specify the
          dimensions of the rectangle.

x
y         Specify the x and y coordinates, which specify the
          upper-left corner of the rectangle.

DESCRIPTION

     The XDrawRectangle and XDrawRectangles functions draw the
     outlines of the specified rectangle or rectangles as if a
     five-point PolyLine protocol request were specified for each
     rectangle:

          [x,y] [x+width,y] [x+width,y+height] [x,y+height] [x,y]

     For the specified rectangle or rectangles, these functions
     do not draw a pixel more than once.  XDrawRectangles draws
     the rectangles in the order listed in the array.  If rectan-
     gles intersect, the intersecting pixels are drawn multiple
     times.

     Both functions use these GC components: function, plane-
     mask, line-width, line-style, join-style, fill-style,
     subwindow-mode, clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-mask.
     They also use these GC mode-dependent components: fore-
     ground, background, tile, stipple, tile-stipple-x-origin,
     tile-stipple-y-origin, dash-offset, and dash-list.

     XDrawRectangle and XDrawRectangles can generate BadDrawable,
     BadGC, and BadMatch errors.

DIAGNOSTICS

BadDrawable

A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap.

BadGC A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined GContext.

BadMatch An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.

BadMatch  Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct
          type and range but fails to match in some other
          way required by the request.
