Detailed Description
Sometimes it is needed to get the contents of a surface, for example to provide a screenshot to the user. The QWaylandSurfaceGrabber class provides a simple method to do so, without having to care what type of buffer backs the surface, be it shared memory, OpenGL or something else.

QWaylandSurfaceGrabber::QWaylandSurfaceGrabber(QWaylandSurface *surface, QObject *parent = nullptr)
Create a QWaylandSurfaceGrabber object with the given surface and parent
void QWaylandSurfaceGrabber::grab()
Grab the content of the surface set on this object. It may not be possible to do that immediately so the success and failed signals should be used to be notified of when the grab is completed.
QWaylandSurface *QWaylandSurfaceGrabber::surface() const
Returns the surface set on this object
