<br>Right now, you don't have to depend on Weston. Users can copy the xdg-shell.xml file into their own projects and use it through the wayland-scanner, just like any other extension. This is what mutter and GTK+ do.<br>

xdg_surface________ stuff is not part of libwayland-client and I<br>
don't really fully understand what is supposed to be happening here.<br>
Also, _wl_fullscreen_shell_present_<u></u>surface seems strange and is not<br>
exported by libwayland-client, and if the example code doesn't use<br>
either of those it has to quit.<br>
<br>
<br>
These protocols are not a part of libwayland, but Weston. You can find<br>
their specification in weston/protocol directory (those xml files) and<br>
you can generate sources from them using wayland-scanner. Then you can<br>
link against these sources (namely xdg-shell-protocol.c for xdg_* stuff<br>
and fullscreen-shell-procotol.c for the another).<br>

But as far as I know,<br>
the common wl_surface should be enough for creating a window without<br>
borders and buttons in Weston (that's how the<br>
weston/tests/weston-test-<u></u>client-helpers.c works).<br>

That's not exactly true. In order for a surface to be displayed on the screen, it needs to have a role. The role of the surface defines what happens when a buffer is attached to it. In the case of the file you mentioned, the role of the surface is set using the wl_test interface. This is not quite clear since it is done by the wl_test::move_surface request.<div>

So if you want to use<br>
only libwayland-client, as you wrote before, you should not use<br>
xdg_shell and fullscreen_shell. What you need to do is:<br>

<br></div>
An alternative would be to use wl_shell. While in the long run it is expected that xdg_shell will replace it, it is currently shipped with libwayland-client and should work.<br>
<br>
You can look at the link below for the commit that changed simple-shm to use xdg_shell instead of wl_shell.<br>
