XkbAllocGeomSections(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbAllocGeomSections(3)NAMEXkbAllocGeomSections - Allocate geometry sections
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbAllocGeomSections (XkbGeometryPtr geom, int num_needed);
ARGUMENTS
- geom geometry for which sections should be allocated
- num_needed
number of new sections required
DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents
of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify key‐
board geometries. Note that these functions merely allocate space for
the new element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the values explic‐
itly in your code. These allocation functions increase sz_* but never
touch num_* (unless there is an allocation failure, in which case they
reset both sz_* and num_* to zero). These functions return Success if
they succeed, BadAlloc if they are not able to allocate space, or Bad‐
Value if a parameter is not as expected.
XkbAllocGeomSections allocates num_needed sections and adds them to the
geometry geom. No initialization of the sections is done.
To free geometry sections, use XkbFreeGeomSections.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadValue An argument is out of range
