为什么 XGrabKey return BadRequest？

Question

所以我正在研究 Gtk/X11/Linux app that does screen capture to .gif and one of the methods of stopping the capture is a key press (Esc, Space or End). You can also use a timeout. However to implement the key press to end capture I have to be able to grab the key such that I can get an event even though my window doesn't have focus (it's actually invisible during capture). I believe XGrabKey 是完成此任务的正确 X11 函数：

Window w = Gtk::gdk_x11_drawable_get_xid(Gtk::gtk_widget_get_window(Handle()));
KeyCode kc = XKeysymToKeycode(Gtk::gdk_display, HotKeyCode);
int r = XGrabKey(   Gtk::gdk_display,
                    kc,
                    0               /* modifiers */,
                    w               /* grab_window */,
                    TRUE            /* owner_events */,
                    GrabModeAsync   /* pointer_mode */,
                    GrabModeAsync   /* keyboard_mode */);
printf("XGrabKey(%p, 0x%x/%x)=%i\n", w, HotKeyCode, kc, r);

其中 'HotKeyCode' 表示 XK_Escape 或其他内容，例如：

XGrabKey(0x3e00003, 0xff1b/9)=1

XGrabKey 正在返回“1”或 BadRequest。我在这里做错了什么？

仅供参考，有问题的实际 Xorg Xserver 代码似乎是 here。

编辑：代码的最新版本是：

int x_err_callback(Display *d, XErrorEvent *e)
{
    char msg[256];

    XGetErrorText(d, e->error_code, msg, sizeof(msg));

    printf("X11Error %d (%s): request %d.%d\n",
        e->error_code, msg, e->request_code,
        e->minor_code);

    return 0;
}

Gtk::GdkFilterReturn key_filter(Gtk::GdkXEvent *gdk_xevent,
                                Gtk::GdkEvent *event,
                                Gtk::gpointer data)
{
    XKeyEvent *xevent = gdk_xevent;
    if (xevent->type == KeyPress)
    {
        int key = ((XKeyEvent *)gdk_xevent)->keycode;
        int keysym = XKeycodeToKeysym(Gtk::gdk_display, key, 0);

        printf("caught keysym %i\n", keysym);

        switch (keysym)
        {
            case 1: // your_keysym
                // your key handler code
                break;
        }
    }

    return Gtk::GDK_FILTER_CONTINUE;
}


Gtk::GdkWindow *Root = Gtk::gdk_get_default_root_window();
KeyCode kc = XKeysymToKeycode(Gtk::gdk_display, HotKeyCode);

XSetErrorHandler(x_err_callback);

int r = XGrabKey(   Gtk::gdk_display,
                    kc,
                    AnyModifier /* modifiers */,
                    GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW(Root) /* grab_window */,
                    TRUE            /* owner_events */,
                    GrabModeAsync   /* pointer_mode */,
                    GrabModeSync    /* keyboard_mode */);

Gtk::gdk_window_set_events(Root,
    (Gtk::GdkEventMask)
    (Gtk::GDK_KEY_PRESS_MASK |
    Gtk::GDK_KEY_RELEASE_MASK));
Gtk::gdk_window_add_filter(NULL, key_filter, this);

AnyModifier 实际上会导致错误。 '0' 没有。我知道 NumLock 问题...

1 的 return 值 而不是 表示发生了 BadRequest 错误。 Xlib handles errors via an error handler，并且该函数将始终 return 1，如果 return 根本没有。

您的代码不起作用，因为您必须在根 window (GetDefaultRootWindow(Gtk::gdk_display)) 上执行 XGrabKey。这是一个纯 Xlib 演示：

#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/keysym.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    Display *d = XOpenDisplay(0);
    Window root = DefaultRootWindow(d);
    int keycode = XKeysymToKeycode(d, XK_BackSpace);

    int rv = XGrabKey(d, keycode, AnyModifier, root, 1, GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync);
    printf("XGrabKey returned %d\n", rv);

    XEvent evt;
    while(1) {
        XNextEvent(d, &evt);
        printf("Got event %d\n", evt.type);
    }
}

然后从 GTK 捕获 X11 事件，在 NULL 或根 window 上使用 gdk_window_add_filter 和处理与您的全局关联的事件的 GdkFilterFunc热键：

#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/keysym.h>
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
#include <gdk/gdkx.h>
#include <stdio.h>

GdkFilterReturn filter(GdkXEvent *xevent, GdkEvent *event, gpointer data) {
    XKeyEvent *ev = (XKeyEvent *)xevent;
    if(ev->type == 2) {
        printf("Backspace hit.\n");
    }

    return GDK_FILTER_CONTINUE;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    gtk_init(&argc, &argv);

    GdkScreen *scr = gdk_screen_get_default();
    GdkWindow *groot = gdk_screen_get_root_window(scr);
    gdk_window_set_events(groot, GDK_KEY_PRESS_MASK);
    gdk_window_add_filter(groot, filter, NULL);

    Display *d = gdk_x11_get_default_xdisplay();
    Window root = GDK_WINDOW_XID(groot);
    int keycode = XKeysymToKeycode(d, XK_BackSpace);
    XGrabKey(d, keycode, AnyModifier, root, 1, GrabModeAsync, GrabModeAsync);

    gtk_main();
}

作为旁注，0 的修饰符掩码意味着必须启用 no 修饰符，即使是那些不会修改键的含义的修饰符。使用 0 修饰符抓住字母 "A" 不会匹配 NumLock + A。这就是我使用 AnyModifer.
