XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes(3)					   XKB FUNCTIONS				       XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes(3)

NAME
XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes - Set the definitions of the canonical key types in a client map to their default values SYNOPSIS
Status XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes ( xkb, which, keypadVMod ) XkbDescPtr xkb; unsigned int which; int keypadVMod; ARGUMENTS
- xkb keyboard description containing client map to initialize - which mask of types to initialize - keypadVMod index of NumLock virtual modifier DESCRIPTION
XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes initializes the first XkbNumRequiredTypes key types of the keyboard specified by the xkb parameter to their default values. The which parameter specifies what canonical key types to initialize and is a bitwise inclusive OR of the following masks: XkbOneLevelMask, XkbTwoLevelMask, XkbAlphabeticMask, and XkbKeypadMask. Only those canonical types specified by the which mask are initial- ized. If XkbKeypadMask is set in the which parameter, XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes looks up the NumLock named virtual modifier to determine which virtual modifier to use when initializing the KEYPAD key type. If the NumLock virtual modifier does not exist, XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes creates it. XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes normally returns Success. It returns BadAccess if the Xkb extension has not been properly initialized, and BadAc- cess if the xkb parameter is not valid. RETURN VALUES
Success The XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes funtion return Success if the Xkb extension has been properly initialized and the xkb parameter is valid. DIAGNOSTICS
BadAccess The Xkb extension has not been properly initialized X Version 11 libX11 1.2.1 XkbInitCanonicalKeyTypes(3)

XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap(3)					   XKB FUNCTIONS					 XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap(3)

NAME
XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap - Obtain the virtual modifier map (the vmodmap array) for a subset of the keys in a keyboard description SYNOPSIS
Status XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap ( dpy, first, num, xkb ) Display * dpy; unsigned int first; unsigned int num; XkbDescPtr xkb; ARGUMENTS
- dpy connection to server - first keycode of first key to fetch - num number of keys for which virtual mod maps are desired - xkb Xkb description where results will be placed DESCRIPTION
XkbGetKeyVirutalModmap sends a request to the server to obtain the virtual modifier mappings for num keys on the keyboard starting with key first. It waits for a reply and returns the virtual modifier mappings in the server->vmodmap array of xkb. If successful, XkbGetKeyVir- tualModMap returns Success. The xkb parameter must be a pointer to a valid Xkb keyboard description. If the server map in the xkb parameter has not been allocated, XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap allocates and initializes it before obtaining the virtual modifier mappings. If the server does not have a compatible version of Xkb, or the Xkb extension has not been properly initialized, XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap returns BadMatch. If num is less than 1 or greater than XkbMaxKeyCount, XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap returns BadValue. If any allocation errors occur, XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap returns BadAlloc. RETURN VALUES
Success The XkbGetKeyVirutalModmap function returns Success following a successful reply from the server to obtain the virtual modi- fier mappings for num keys on the keyboard starting with key first. DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage BadMatch A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has correct type and range, but is otherwise invalid BadValue An argument is out of range X Version 11 libX11 1.2.1 XkbGetKeyVirtualModMap(3)
