The client to be activated will then pass the token 35 it received to the xdg_activation_v1.activate request. The compositor can 36 then use this token to decide how to react to the activation request. 37 38 The token the activating client gets may be ineffective either already at 39 the time it receives it, for example if it was not focused, for focus 40 stealing prevention. The activating client will have no way to discover 41 the validity of the token, and may still forward it to the to be activated 42 client. 43 44 The created activation token may optionally get information attached to it 45 that can be used by the compositor to identify the application that we 46 intend to activate. This can for example be used to display a visual hint 47 about what application is being started. 48 49 Warning! The protocol described in this file is currently in the testing 50 phase. Backward compatible changes may be added together with the 51 corresponding interface version bump. Backward incompatible changes can 52 only be done by creating a new major version of the extension. 53 </description> 54 55 <interface name="xdg_activation_v1" version="1"> 56 <description summary="interface for activating surfaces"> 57 A global interface used for informing the compositor about applications 58 being activated or started, or for applications to request to be 59 activated. 60 </description> 61 62 <request name="destroy" type="destructor"> 63 <description summary="destroy the xdg_activation object"> 64 Notify the compositor that the xdg_activation object will no longer be 65 used. 66 67 The child objects created via this interface are unaffected and should 68 be destroyed separately. 69 </description> 70 </request> 71 72 <request name="get_activation_token"> 73 <description summary="requests a token"> 74 Creates an xdg_activation_token_v1 object that will provide 75 the initiating client with a unique token for this activation.
