NAME

6       XkbGetKeySyms  -  Obtain the symbols for a subset of the keys in a key‐
7       board description

SYNOPSIS

10       Status XkbGetKeySyms (Display *dpy, unsigned int  first,  unsigned  int
11              num, XkbDescPtr xkb);
12

ARGUMENTS

14       dpy    connection to X server
15
16       first  keycode of first key to get
17
18       num    number of keycodes for which syms desired
19
20       xkb    Xkb description to be updated
21

DESCRIPTION

23       XkbGetKeySyms  sends  a  request  to  the  server  to obtain the set of
24       keysyms bound to num keys starting with the key whose keycode is first.
25       It  waits  for a reply and returns the keysyms in the map.syms field of
26       xkb.  If successful, XkbGetKeySyms returns Success. The  xkb  parameter
27       must be a pointer to a valid Xkb keyboard description.
28
29       If  the  client  map  in  the xkb parameter has not been allocated, Xk‐
30       bGetKeySyms allocates and initializes it before obtaining the symbols.
31
32       If a compatible version of Xkb is not available in the  server  or  the
33       Xkb  extension has not been properly initialized, XkbGetKeySyms returns
34       BadAccess. If num is less than 1 or greater  than  XkbMaxKeyCount,  Xk‐
35       bGetKeySyms  returns  BadValue.  If  any  allocation  errors occur, Xk‐
36       bGetKeySyms returns BadAlloc.
37

RETURN VALUES

39       Success        The XkbGetKeySyms function returns Success if it gets  a
40                      reply  to  a  request to the server to obtain the set of
41                      keysyms bound to num keys starting with  the  key  whose
42                      keycode is first.
