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       XkbAllocGeomProps  allocates  space  for num_needed properties and adds
29       them to the specified geometry geom.  No initialization of the  proper‐
30       ties  is  done. A geometry property associates an arbitrary string with
31       an equally arbitrary name. Geometry properties can be used  to  provide
32       hints  to  programs  that display images of keyboards, but they are not
33       interpreted by Xkb. No other  geometry  structures  refer  to  geometry
34       properties.
