XCB key inputs interception?

Question

What is the code for intercept key inputs on XCB protocol?

I can't find anything on the XCB documentation for that purpose (or i can't see the right piece of doc/code). I use Python, but a C example can be good for understand the code. thanks.

Look here:

xcb events

Takes the time to read all this page and then focus on the keyboard events. At the end, there is a full example of an xcb application save the code in the_name_of_the_source_file.c (for example)

Compile it with:

gcc -lxcb -o the_name_of_the_application the_name_of_the_source_file.c
