Classes
An important component of the resource concept are
classes
. The
xvideo
client belongs to the
XVideo
class.
Indeed all mentioned resources belong to this class.
This way, it is possible to define settings, which effect all
xvideo
clients. E. g.,
XVideo*encoding:PAL
XVideo*recording:VHS
is evaluated by both clients
xvideo-foo
and
xvideo-dummy
concerning the example above.
Path of resource files
The resources are stored in
resource files
. These files must be located in certain directories and must be named
correctly.
These paths and variables are evaluated in this sequence:
•
/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/XVideo
•
$XAPPRLESDIR/XVideo
•
RESOURCE_MANAGER
or if empty:
~/.Xdefaults
•
$XENVIRONMENT
or if empty:
~/.Xdefaults-<hostname>
•
