.SH NAME
weston.ini \- configuration file for
.B Weston
\- the reference Wayland
compositor
.SH INTRODUCTION
.B Weston
obtains configuration from its command line parameters and the configuration
file described here.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B Weston
uses a configuration file called
.I weston.ini
for its setup.
The
.I weston.ini
configuration file is searched for in one of the following places when the
server is started:
.PP
.RS 4
.nf
.BR "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/weston.ini " "(if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is set)"
.BR "$HOME/.config/weston.ini " "(if $HOME is set)"
config-parser: Honor XDG_CONFIG_DIRS This set of changes adds support for searching for a given config file in the directories listed in $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS if it wasn't found in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or ~/.config. This allows packages to install custom config files in /etc/xdg/weston, for example, thus allowing them to avoid dealing with home directories. To avoid a TOCTOU race the config file is actually open()ed during the search. Its file descriptor is returned and stored in the compositor for later use when performing subsequent config file parses. Signed-off-by: Ossama Othman <ossama.othman@intel.com>
