Class wl_proxy
Every object you will encounter is actually a wl_proxy object with a different given set of methods (depending on its interface).
Thus it inherits all the wl_proxy methods - most notable the add_listener method.
The different/variable set of methods available to an object is defined by the wl_interface that the object has.
The "to string" behavior of a proxy follows the wayland convention (for example similar to wl_registry@2)
Usage:
local wau = require("wau")
local display = wau.wl_display.connect(nil)
local registry = display:get_registry()
print(display:get_id(), display:get_class(), display) -- the ID of the dipslay is always 1
print(registry:get_id(), registry:get_class(), registry)
Methods
| wl_proxy:get_class () | Get the class of the proxy |
| wl_proxy:get_id () | Get the ID of the proxy |
| wl_proxy:add_listener (listener) | Add event listeners to the proxy. |
