Title: X Error of failed request: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
Post by: TheBoneJarmer on September 05, 2015, 15:30:09
Hey guys,

I am not sure if this is related to GLFW or LWJGL and if it is a bug or not. But every time I close my game window, this message pops up in my terminal:


X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  3 (X_GetWindowAttributes)
  Resource id in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  2270
  Current serial number in output stream:  2271


I am not entirely sure what it means and why it shows up. Also, it does not affect anything as far as I know. It only happens when I close my game window inside the main loop. If I press the close button in the title bar, it works fine. I am working on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bits. Please let me know if you need any code or something.

Thanks in advance!

Perhaps you are trying to close the window twice, look over your code and check.

Yes, that was indeed the case. Thank you!
