+
+<para>
+This document both unifies and extends the previous diverse approaches
+to generate a proposal for an X extension that provides support for
+the recording of all core X protocol and arbitrary extension protocol.
+Input synthesis, or playback, has already been implemented in the
+XTest extension, an X Consortium standard. Therefore, this extension
+is limited to recording.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+In order to provide both record and playback functionality, a
+hypothetical record application could use this extension to capture
+both user actions and their consequences. For example, a button press
+(a user action) may cause a window to be mapped and a corresponding
+<function>MapNotify</function>
+event to be sent (a consequence). This information could be
+stored for later use by a playback application.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The playback application could use the recorded actions as input for
+the XTest extension's
+<function>XTestFakeInput</function>
+operation to synthesize the
+appropriate input events. The "consequence" or synchronization
+information is then used as a synchronization point during playback.
+That is, the playback application does not generate specific
+synthesized events until their matching synchronization condition
+occurs. When the condition occurs the processing of synthesized
+events continues. Determination that the condition has occurred may be
+made by capturing the consequences of the synthesized events and
+comparing them to the previously recorded synchronization information.
+For example, if a button press was followed by a
+<function>MapNotify</function>
+event on a
+particular window in the recorded data, the playback application might
+synthesize the button press then wait for the
+<function>MapNotify</function>
+event on the
+appropriate window before proceeding with subsequent synthesized
+input.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Because
+it is impossible to predict what synchronization information will be
+required by a particular application, the extension provides
+facilities to record any subset of core X protocol and arbitrary
+extension protocol.
+As such, this extension does not enforce a specific
+synchronization methodology; any method based on information in the X
+protocol stream (e.g., watching for window mapping/unmapping, cursor
+changes, drawing of certain text strings, etc.) can capture the
+information it needs using RECORD facilities.

+<para>
+The document represents the culmination of two years of debate and
+experiments done under the auspices of the X Consortium xtest working
+group. Although this was a group effort, the author remains
+responsible for any errors or omissions.
+Two years ago, Robert Chesler of Absol-puter, Kieron Drake of UniSoft
+Ltd., Marc Evans of Synergytics and Ken Miller of Digitial shared the
+vision of a standard extension for recording and were all instrumental
+in the early protocol development. During the last two years, Bob
+Scheifler of the X Consortium and Jim Fulton of NCD continuously
+provided input to the protocol design, as well as encouragement to the
+author. In the last few months, Stephen Gildea and Dave Wiggins,
+both X Consortium staff, have spent considerable time fine tuning the
+protocol design and reviewing the protocol specifications. Most
+recently, Amnon Cohen of Mercury Interactive has assisted in
+clarification of the recorded event policy, and Kent Siefkes of
+Performance Awareness has assisted in clarification of the timestamp
+policy.

+<title>Overview</title>
+<para>
+The mechanism used by this extension for recording is to intercept
+core X protocol and arbitrary X extension protocol entirely within the X server
+itself. When the extension has been requested to intercept specific
+protocol by one or more clients, the protocol data are formatted and
+returned to the recording clients.
+</para>
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+The extension provides a mechanism for capturing all events, including
+input device events that go to no clients, that is analogous to a client
+expressing "interest" in all events in all windows, including the root
+window. Event filtering in the extension provides a mechanism for feeding
+device events to recording clients; it does not provide a mechanism for
+in-place, synchronous event substitution, modification, or withholding.
+In addition, the
+extension does not provide data compression before intercepted protocol
+is returned to the recording clients.
+</para>
+<sect3 id="Data_Delivery">
+<title>Data Delivery</title>
+<!-- .XS -->
+<!-- (SN Data Delivery -->
+<!-- .XE -->
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+Because
+events are limited in size to
+32 bytes, using events to return intercepted protocol data to recording
+clients is prohibitive in terms of performance. Therefore, intercepted
+protocol data are returned to recording clients through multiple replies
+to the extension request to begin protocol interception and reporting.
+This utilization is consistent with
+<function>ListFontsWithInfo ,</function>
+for example, where a
+single request has multiple replies.
+</para>
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+Individual requests, replies, events or errors intercepted by the extension
+on behalf of recording clients cannot be split across reply packets. In order
+to reduce overhead, multiple intercepted requests, replies, events and errors
+might be collected
+into a single reply.
+Nevertheless, all data are returned to the client in a timely manner.
+</para>
+</sect3>
+<sect3 id="Record_Context">
+<title>Record Context</title>
+<!-- .XS -->
+<!-- (SN Record Context -->
+<!-- .XE -->
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+The extension adds a record context resource (RC)
+to the set of resources managed by the server. All the
+extension operations take an RC as an argument. Although the protocol
+permits sharing of RCs between clients, it is expected that clients will
+use their own RCs. The attributes used in extension operations are stored
+in the RCs, and these attributes include the protocol and clients to
+intercept.
+</para>
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+The terms "register" and "unregister" are used to describe the
+relationship between clients to intercept and the RC. To register
+a client with an RC means the client is added to the list
+of clients to intercept; to unregister a client means the client
+is deleted from the list of clients to intercept. When the
+server is requested to register or unregister clients from an RC,
+it is required to do so immediately. That is, it is not permissible for
+the server to wait until recording is enabled to register clients
+or recording is disabled to unregister clients.
+</para>
+</sect3>
+
+<sect3 id="Record_Client_Connections">
+<title>Record Client Connections</title>
+<!-- .XS -->
+<!-- (SN Record Client Connections -->
+<!-- .XE -->
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+The typical communication model for a recording client is to open
+two connections to the server and use one for RC control and
+the other for reading protocol data.
+</para>
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+The "control" connection can execute requests to obtain information about
+the supported protocol version, create and destroy RCs, specify protocol
+types to intercept and clients to be recorded, query the current state
+of an RC, and to stop interception and reporting of protocol data. The
+"data" connection can execute a request to
+enable interception
+and reporting of specified protocol for a particular RC. When the
+"enable" request is issued, intercepted protocol is sent back on the
+same connection, generally in more than one reply packet. Until the last
+reply to the "enable" request is sent by the server, signifying that
+the request execution is complete, no other requests will be executed by
+the server on that connection. That is, the connection that data are being
+reported on cannot issue the "disable" request until the last reply
+to the "enable" request is sent by the server. Therefore, unless a
+recording client never has the need to disable the interception and reporting
+of protocol data, two client connections are necessary.
+</para>
+</sect3>
+<sect3 id="Events">
+<title>Events</title>
+<!-- .XS -->
+<!-- (SN Events -->
+<!-- .XE -->
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+The terms "delivered events" and "device events" are used
+to describe the two event classes recording clients may
+select for interception. These event classes are handled differently
+by the extension. Delivered events are core X events or X extension events
+the server actually delivers to one or more clients. Device events are
+events generated by core X devices or extension input devices that the
+server may or may not deliver to any clients. When device events
+are selected for interception by a recording client, the extension
+guarantees each device event is recorded and will be forwarded
+to the recording client in the same order it is generated by the
+device.
+</para>
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+The recording of selected device events is not affected
+by server grabs. Delivered events, on the other hand, can be affected
+by server grabs.
+If a recording client selects both
+a device event and delivered events that result from that device
+event, the delivered events are recorded after the device event.
+In the absence of grabs, the delivered events for a
+device event precede later device events.
+</para>
+<para>
+<!-- .LP -->
+Requests that have side effects on
+devices, such as
+<function>WarpPointer</function>
+and
+<function>GrabPointer</function>
+with a confine-to window,
+will cause RECORD to record an associated device event.
+The XTEST extension request
+<function>XTestFakeInput</function>
+causes a device event to be recorded; the
+device events are recorded in the same order that the
+<function>XTestFakeInput</function>
+requests are received by the server.

+This request enables data transfer between the recording client
+and the extension and returns the protocol data the recording client
+has previously expressed interest in. Typically, this request is
+executed by the recording client over the data connection.

+Once the server receives this request, it begins intercepting
+and reporting to the recording client all core and extension protocol
+received from or sent to clients registered with the RC that the
+recording client has expressed interest in. All intercepted protocol data
+is returned in the byte-order of the recorded client. Therefore,
+recording clients are responsible for all byte swapping, if required.
+More than one recording client cannot enable data transfer on the
+same RC at the same time. Multiple intercepted requests, replies,
+events and errors might be packaged into a single reply before
+being returned to the recording clients.

+data transfer between the extension and the recording client.
+Protocol reporting is disabled
