XUnlockDisplay

Syntax

void XUnlockDisplay(display)
      Display *display;

Arguments

display

Specifies the connection to the X server.

Description

The XUnlockDisplay() function allows other threads to use the specified display again. Any threads that have blocked on the display are allowed to continue. Nested locking works correctly; if XLockDisplay() has been called multiple times by a thread, then XUnlockDisplay must be called an equal number of times before the display is actually unlocked. This function has no effect unless Xlib was successfully initialized for threads using XInitThreads().
