在Linux上更改墙纸编程

Question

我将如何改变C / C ++程序内的Linux桌面（使用GNOME）上的壁纸？是否有一个系统API办呢？

Answer 1

虽然问题是GNOME特有的，有也应对未在高层工具包depepndant墙纸的方式。你应该能够应对根窗口（其中壁纸，实际上）通过研究的 xsetroot.c 时，最有趣的部分，其中我copypaste这里：

static void
SetBackgroundToBitmap(Pixmap bitmap, unsigned int width, unsigned int height)
{
    Pixmap pix;
    GC gc;
    XGCValues gc_init;

    gc_init.foreground = NameToPixel(fore_color, BlackPixel(dpy, screen));
    gc_init.background = NameToPixel(back_color, WhitePixel(dpy, screen));
    if (reverse) {
        unsigned long temp=gc_init.foreground;
        gc_init.foreground=gc_init.background;
        gc_init.background=temp;
    }
    gc = XCreateGC(dpy, root, GCForeground|GCBackground, &gc_init);
    pix = XCreatePixmap(dpy, root, width, height,
                        (unsigned int)DefaultDepth(dpy, screen));
    XCopyPlane(dpy, bitmap, pix, gc, 0, 0, width, height, 0, 0, (unsigned long)1);
    XSetWindowBackgroundPixmap(dpy, root, pix);
    XFreeGC(dpy, gc);
    XFreePixmap(dpy, bitmap);
    if (save_colors)
        save_pixmap = pix;
    else
        XFreePixmap(dpy, pix);
    XClearWindow(dpy, root);
    unsave_past = 1;
}

您可以使用的gconf 库来做到这一点。下面的示例是一个完整的程序来改变背景：

// bkgmanage.c
#include <glib.h>
#include <gconf/gconf-client.h>
#include <stdio.h>

typedef enum {
    WALLPAPER_ALIGN_TILED     = 0,
    WALLPAPER_ALIGN_CENTERED  = 1,
    WALLPAPER_ALIGN_STRETCHED = 2,
    WALLPAPER_ALIGN_SCALED    = 3,
    WALLPAPER_NONE            = 4
} WallpaperAlign;

gboolean set_as_wallpaper( const gchar *image_path, WallpaperAlign align )
{
    GConfClient *client;
    char        *options = "none";

    client = gconf_client_get_default();

    // TODO: check that image_path is a file
    if ( image_path == NULL ) options = "none";
    else {
        gconf_client_set_string( client, 
            "/desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename",
            image_path,
            NULL );
        switch ( align ) {
            case WALLPAPER_ALIGN_TILED: options = "wallpaper"; break;
            case WALLPAPER_ALIGN_CENTERED: options = "centered"; break;
            case WALLPAPER_ALIGN_STRETCHED: options = "stretched"; break;
            case WALLPAPER_ALIGN_SCALED: options = "scaled"; break;
            case WALLPAPER_NONE: options = "none"; break;
        }
    }
    gboolean result = gconf_client_set_string( client, 
        "/desktop/gnome/background/picture_options", 
        options,
        NULL);
    g_object_unref( G_OBJECT(client) );

    return result;
}

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
  if ( argc > 1 ) {
    printf( "Setting %s as wallpaper... ", argv[1] );
    if ( set_as_wallpaper( argv[1], WALLPAPER_ALIGN_STRETCHED ) ) printf( "Ok\n" );
    else printf( "Failed\n" );
  } else printf( "Usage: ./bkgmanage <filename>\n" );

  return 0;
}

上面的源是基于 gThumb的项目。它可以用下面的字符串被编译：

gcc -Wall -g `pkg-config --libs --cflags glib-2.0 gconf-2.0` bkgmanage.c -o bkgmanage

如果没有别的，你很可能system()调用建议这里的命令行之一：
