.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.LP
|
|
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
|
|
.I sz_*
|
|
but never touch
|
|
.I num_*
|
|
(unless there is an allocation failure, in which case they reset both
|
|
.I sz_*
|
|
and
|
|
.I 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.
|
|
|
|
.I XkbAllocGeomProps
|
|
allocates space for
|
|
.I num_needed
|
|
properties and adds them to the specified geometry
|
|
.I geom.
|
|
No initialization of the properties is done. A geometry property associates an
|
|
arbitrary string with an equally arbitrary name. Geometry properties can be used
|
|
to provide hints to programs that display images of keyboards, but they are not
|
|
interpreted by Xkb. No other geometry structures refer to geometry properties.
