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 SEE ALSO

NAME
XkbFreeGeomSections - Free geometry sections SYNOPSIS
void XkbFreeGeomSections ( geom, first, count, free_all ) XkbGeometryPtr geom; int first; int count; Bool free_all; ARGUMENTS
- geom geometry in which sections should be freed - first first section to be freed - count number of sections to be freed - free_all True => all sections 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 sections are freed regardless of the value of first and count. Otherwise, the number of sections specified by count are freed, beginning with the section specified by first in the specified geometry. RETURN VALUES
Success The XkbFreeGeomSections 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 XkbFreeGeomSections(3)
