XSetFunction sets a specified value in the specified GC.
XSetFunction can generate BadAlloc, BadGC, and BadValue
errors.
The XSetPlaneMask function sets the plane mask in the
specified GC.
XSetPlaneMask can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.
The XSetForeground function sets the foreground in the
specified GC.
XSetForeground can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.
The XSetBackground function sets the background in the
specified GC.
XSetBackground can generate BadAlloc and BadGC errors.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc The server failed to allocate the requested
resource or server memory.
BadGC A value for a GContext argument does not name a
defined GContext.
BadValue Some numeric value falls outside the range of
values accepted by the request. Unless a specific
range is specified for an argument, the full range
defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any
argument defined as a set of alternatives can
generate this error.
