XkbFreeGeomProperties(3)					   XKB FUNCTIONS					  XkbFreeGeomProperties(3)

NAME
XkbFreeGeomProperties - Free geometry properties SYNOPSIS
void XkbFreeGeomProperties ( geom, first, count, free_all ) XkbGeometryPtr geom; int first; int count; Bool * free_all; ARGUMENTS
- geom geometry in which properties should be freed - first first property to be freed - count number of properties to be freed - free_all True => all properties are freed 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. If free_all is True, all properties are freed regardless of the value of first or count. Otherwise, count properties are freed beginning with the one specified by first. RETURN VALUES
Success The XkbFreeGeomProperties function returns Success when there are no allocation or argument errors. DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage BadValue An argument is out of range X Version 11 libX11 1.2.1 XkbFreeGeomProperties(3)
