XkbAllocGeomProps(3)						   XKB FUNCTIONS					      XkbAllocGeomProps(3)

NAME
       XkbAllocGeomProps - Allocate geometry properties

SYNOPSIS
       Status XkbAllocGeomProps (XkbGeometryPtr geom, int num_needed);

ARGUMENTS
       - geom _summary_

       - num_needed
	      _summary_

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.

       XkbAllocGeomProps allocates space for num_needed properties and adds them to the specified geometry geom.  No initialization of the proper-
       ties is done. A geometry property associates an arbitrary string with an equally arbitrary name. Geometry properties can be used to provide
       hints  to  programs  that  display images of keyboards, but they are not interpreted by Xkb. No other geometry structures refer to geometry
       properties.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue       An argument is out of range
