NAME
XkbAllocGeomKeyAliases - Allocate geometry key aliases
SYNOPSIS
-
Status XkbAllocGeomKeyAliases
(XkbGeometryPtr geom,
int num_needed);
ARGUMENTS
- - geom
-
- geometry for which key aliases should be allocated
- - num_needed
-
number of new key aliases required
DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a
keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify keyboard geometries.
Note that these functions merely allocate space for the new element(s), and it
is up to you to fill in the values explicitly in your code. These allocation
functions increase
sz_*
but never touch
num_*
(unless there is an allocation failure, in which case they reset both
sz_*
and
num_*
to zero). These functions return Success if they succeed, BadAlloc if they are
not able to allocate space, or BadValue if a parameter is not as expected.
XkbAllocGeomKeyAliases
allocates space for
num_needed
key aliases and adds them to the specified geometry
geom.
A key alias is a pair of strings that associates an alternate name for a key
with the real name for that key.
To free geometry key aliases, use
XkbFreeGeomKeyAliases.
DIAGNOSTICS
- BadAlloc
-
Unable to allocate storage
- BadValue
-
An argument is out of range
