XkbCopyKeyTypes(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbCopyKeyTypes(3)
NAME
XkbCopyKeyTypes - Copy more than one XkbKeyTypeRec structure
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbCopyKeyTypes (XkbKeyTypePtr from, XkbKeyTypePtr into, int
num_types);
ARGUMENTS
from pointer to array of XkbKeyTypeRecs to copy
into pointer to array of XkbKeyTypeRecs to change
num_types
number of types to copy
DESCRIPTION
XkbCopyKeyTypes copies num_types XkbKeyTypeRec structures from the
array specified by from into the array specified by into. It is
intended for copying between, rather than within, keyboard
descriptions, so it doesn't check for overlaps. The same rules that
apply to the from and into parameters in XkbCopyKeyType apply to each
entry of the from and into arrays of XkbCopyKeyTypes. If any
allocation errors occur while copying from to into, XkbCopyKeyTypes
returns BadAlloc. Otherwise, XkbCopyKeyTypes copies from to into and
returns Success.
RETURN VALUES
Success The XkbCopyKeyTypes function returns Success when there
are no allocation errors.
STRUCTURES
Key types are used to determine the shift level of a key given the
current state of the keyboard. The set of all possible key types for
the Xkb keyboard description are held in the types field of the client
map, whose total size is stored in size_types, and whose total number
of valid entries is stored in num_types. Key types are defined using
the following structure:
typedef struct { /* Key Type */
XkbModsRec mods; /* modifiers used to compute shift level */
unsigned char num_levels; /* total # shift levels, do not modify directly */
unsigned char map_count; /* # entries in map, preserve (if non-NULL) */
XkbKTMapEntryPtr map; /* vector of modifiers for each shift level */
XkbModsPtr preserve; /* mods to preserve for corresponding map entry */
Atom name; /* name of key type */
Atom * level_names; /* array of names of each shift level */
} XkbKeyTypeRec, *XkbKeyTypePtr;
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
