I implemented this javacode, and crossed my fingers. But no, i encountered several issues trying to make this work.

1. There is a structure X11.XSetWindowAttributes which cant be passed along the method XCreateWindow as i recieve this error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The type "boolean" is not supported as a Structure field at com.sun.jna.Structure.getNativeSize(Structure.java:738) at com.sun.jna.Structure.getNativeSize(Structure.java:758) at com.sun.jna.Structure.calculateSize(Structure.java:640) at com.sun.jna.Structure.allocateMemory(Structure.java:173) at com.sun.jna.Structure.<init>(Structure.java:96) at com.sun.jna.Structure.<init>(Structure.java:90) at com.sun.jna.Structure.<init>(Structure.java:86) at com.sun.jna.examples.unix.X11$XSetWindowAttributes.<init>(X11.java:291) at teste2.main(teste2.java:22)

So i progressed with creating my own structure, but since im extending com.sun.jna.examples.unix.X11 from my X11 interface it will use the X11.XSetWindowAttributes by default instead of XSetWindowAttributes.

i then just set the arguments required to null and hoped for the best. which didnt turn out well :) it seems i create the window, but i dont recieve any events. and if i try to get window information through XGetWMName i recieve segfaults.

im fresh out of ideas on where to go now. Can anyone help me?
