python - Get GDK Window from xid, under Wayland -


in nutshell: repeat of how gdk window xid?, under wayland.

code following worked fine until updated debian stretch buster:

#!/usr/bin/env python3 gi.repository import gdk gi.repository import gdkx11  gdk.window.process_all_updates() xlib_window = 0x2a00005 # example. wmctrl; xwininfo used in previous question. gdk_display = gdkx11.x11display.get_default() gdk_window = gdkx11.x11window.foreign_new_for_display(gdk_display, xlib_window) print gdk_window.get_geometry()

unfortunately, gdk_display __gi__.gdkwaylanddisplay, gdkx11.x11window.foreign_new_for_display throws

typeerror: argument display: expected gdkx11.x11display, got __gi__.gdkwaylanddisplay

so how gdkwindow now? (i couldn't see necessary docs online @ all, pointers appreciated.)

i'm happy gdkwindow pid or process name, since that's xid from.

as general answer, judging "for example. wmctrl" comment, there no solution.

by design, wayland doesn't allows applications meddle or inspect each other's windows security reasons.

x11 applications wmctrl run inside compatibility layer named xwayland , don't have permission meddle native wayland applications.

you're getting error because you're trying use gdkx11 inside application started native wayland application , it's not fundamentally different error you'd trying call win32 apis in c# application that's running natively on linux.

the way make work either how force relevant applications fall running via xwayland or write whatever you're trying accomplish patch wayland compositor itself.

What is happening when Matlab is starting a "parallel pool"? -

running parallel cpu processes in matlab starts command parpool() according documentation , function: [creates] special job on pool of workers, , [connects] matlab client parallel pool. this function takes bit of time execute, on order of 30 seconds. in other multi-cpu paradigms openmp, parallel execution seems totally transparent -- i've never noticed behavior analogous matlab (granted i'm not experienced parallel programming). so, happening between time parpool() called , when finishes executing? takes long? parallel computing toolbox enables run matlab code in parallel using several different paradigms (e.g. jobs , tasks, parfor , spmd , parfeval , batch processing), , run either locally (parallelised across cores in local machine) or remotely (parallelised across machines in cluster - either 1 own, or 1 in cloud). in of these cases, code run on matlab workers , copies of matlab without interactive desktop. if you're intending run on remo...
