xkballocgeomsections

XkbAllocGeomSections(3) 					   XKB FUNCTIONS					   XkbAllocGeomSections(3)

NAME

       XkbAllocGeomSections - 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
       explicitly  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 BadValue 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
