.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.LP
|
|
As a convenience, you can use the function
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
to perform these three
|
|
tasks at once: open a connection to an X server, check for a compatible version
|
|
of the Xkb extension in both the library and the server, and initialize the
|
|
extension for use.
|
|
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
is a convenience function that opens an X display connection and
|
|
initializes the X keyboard extension. In all cases, upon return
|
|
.I reason_rtrn
|
|
contains a status value indicating success or the type of failure. If
|
|
.I major_in_out
|
|
and
|
|
.I minor_in_out
|
|
are not NULL,
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
first calls
|
|
.I XkbLibraryVersion
|
|
to determine whether the client library is compatible, passing
|
|
it the values pointed to by
|
|
.I major_in_out and
|
|
.I minor_in_out. If the library is
|
|
incompatible,
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay backfills
|
|
.I major_in_out
|
|
and
|
|
.I minor_in_out
|
|
with the
|
|
major and minor extension versions of the library being used and returns NULL.
|
|
If the library is compatible,
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
next calls
|
|
.I XOpenDisplay
|
|
with the
|
|
.I display_name.
|
|
If this fails, the function returns NULL. If successful,
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
calls
|
|
.I XkbQueryExtension
|
|
and backfills the major and minor Xkb
|
|
server extension version numbers in
|
|
.I major_in_out and
|
|
.I minor_in_out. If the server
|
|
extension version is not compatible with the library extension version or if the
|
|
server extension is not present,
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
closes the display and returns
|
|
NULL. When successful, the function returns the display connection.
|
|
|
|
The possible values for reason_rtrn are:
|
|
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
XkbOD_BadLibraryVersion indicates XkbLibraryVersion returned False.
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
XkbOD_ConnectionRefused indicates the display could not be opened.
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
XkbOD_BadServerVersion indicates the library and the server have incompatible
|
|
extension versions.
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
XkbOD_NonXkbServer indicates the extension is not present in the X server.
|
|
.IP \(bu 5
|
|
XkbOD_Success indicates that the function succeeded.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
|

|
|
The
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay

function returns NULL if the library is incompatible.

|
|
The
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
function returns NULL if the call to
|
|
.I XOpenDisplay

.I display_name
|
|
fails.
|
|
.sp
|
|
.in 20
|
|
The
|
|
.I XkbOpenDisplay
|
|
function returns NULL and closes the display if the server extension version is not
|
|
compatible with the library extension version or if the server extension is not present.
