XkbAllocGeometry(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbAllocGeometry(3)
NAME
XkbAllocGeometry - Allocate an entire geometry
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbAllocGeometry (XkbDescPtr xkb, XkbGeometrySizesPtr sizes);
ARGUMENTS
xkb keyboard description for which geometry is to be allocated
sizes initial sizes for all geometry components
DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents
of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify key-
board geometries. Note that these functions merely allocate space for
the new element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the values explic-
itly 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 Bad-
Value if a parameter is not as expected.
XkbAllocGeometry allocates a keyboard geometry and adds it to the key-
board description specified by xkb. The keyboard description should be
obtained via the XkbGetKeyboard or XkbAllocKeyboard functions. The
sizes parameter specifies the number of elements to be reserved for the
subcomponents of the keyboard geometry and can be zero or more. These
subcomponents include the properties, colors, shapes, sections, and
doodads.
To free an entire geometry, use XkbFreeGeometry.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadValue An argument is out of range
