Get active window

[gnumdk]

I try to get active (focused one) window but it doesn't work :(

xid = window->screen->display->activeWindow;
w = findWindowAtDisplay(window->screen->display, xid);

This always give me kicker as active window :(

[gnumdk]

xid = getActiveWindow(window->screen->display, window->screen->root);
w=findWindowAtScreen(window->screen, xid);

This is not working :(

for (w = window->screen->windows; w ; w = w->next)
{

if (window->screen->focusWindow (w) )
break;
}

This too :(

xid = getActiveWindow(window->screen->display, window->screen->root);
w=findWindowAtScreen(window->screen, xid);

I think this code should work, it just reads the active window atom on the root window.

You can check the value of this, the active window should be reported correctly here.

xprop -root | grep _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW\(W
