select ( mut ) → Result<&mut Self, Error> method [source] ¶ method [source] ¶ select

Make this window active in the session it was reached through.

Targeted by id rather than by index. An index is a slot, not an identity: anything that renumbers windows -- breaking a lone pane out of one moves it to a free index -- leaves a handle's cached index pointing at whatever occupies that slot now, which is a different live window rather than nothing. tmux answers such a target without complaint, so an index-scoped select would switch to the wrong window and report success.

Errors

Returns an error when tmux refuses the command, and Error::ObjectGone when the window is no longer on the server.
