NAME

6       XkbAllocGeomKeyAliases - Allocate geometry key aliases
7

SYNOPSIS

9       Status XkbAllocGeomKeyAliases (XkbGeometryPtr geom, int num_needed);
10

ARGUMENTS

12       - geom geometry for which key aliases should be allocated
13
14       - num_needed
15              number of new key aliases required
16

DESCRIPTION

18       Xkb  provides  a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents
19       of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create  or  modify  key‐
20       board  geometries.  Note that these functions merely allocate space for
21       the new element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the  values  explic‐
22       itly  in  your code. These allocation functions increase sz_* but never
23       touch num_* (unless there is an allocation failure, in which case  they
24       reset  both  sz_* and num_* to zero). These functions return Success if
25       they succeed, BadAlloc if they are not able to allocate space, or  Bad‐
26       Value if a parameter is not as expected.
27
28       XkbAllocGeomKeyAliases  allocates  space for num_needed key aliases and
29       adds them to the specified geometry geom.  A key alias  is  a  pair  of
30       strings  that associates an alternate name for a key with the real name
31       for that key.
32
33       To free geometry key aliases, use XkbFreeGeomKeyAliases.

DIAGNOSTICS

36       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage
