XkbAllocGeomOutlines(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbAllocGeomOutlines(3)
NAME
XkbAllocGeomOutlines - Allocate space for an arbitrary number of outlines to a shape
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbAllocGeomOutlines ( shape, num_needed )
XkbShapePtr shape;
int num_needed;
ARGUMENTS
- shape
shape for which outlines should be allocated
- num_needed
number of new outlines required
DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a keyboard geome-
try. Use these functions to create or modify keyboard geometries. Note that these func-
tions 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.
XkbAllocGeomOutlines allocates space for num_needed outlines in the specified shape. The
outlines are not initialized.
To free geometry outlines, use XkbFreeGeomOutlines.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadValue An argument is out of range
