XkbAllocGeomOverlays(3) 					   XKB FUNCTIONS					   XkbAllocGeomOverlays(3)

NAME
XkbAllocGeomOverlays - Allocate overlays in a section
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbAllocGeomOverlays (XkbSectionPtr section, int num_needed);
ARGUMENTS
- section section for which overlays should be allocated - num_needed number of new overlays 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 explic- itly 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. XkbAllocGeomOverlays allocates num_needed overlays and adds them to the section. No initialization of the overlays is done.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage BadValue An argument is out of range X Version 11 libX11 1.3.2 XkbAllocGeomOverlays(3)
