XkbSetCompatMap(3)                        XKB FUNCTIONS                        XkbSetCompatMap(3)



NAME
       XkbSetCompatMap - Modify the server's compatibility map

SYNOPSIS
       Bool XkbSetCompatMap ( display, which, xkb, update_actions )
             Display * display;
             unsigned int which;
             XkbDescPtr xkb;
             Bool update_actions;

ARGUMENTS
       - display
              connection to server

       - which
              mask of compat map components to set

       - xkb  source for compat map components

       - update_actions
              True => apply to server's keyboard map

DESCRIPTION
       To modify the server's compatibility map, first modify a local copy of the Xkb compatibil-
       ity map, then call XkbSetCompatMap.  You may allocate a new  compatibility  map  for  this
       purpose  using  XkbAllocCompatMap.   You  may  also  use  a compatibility map from another
       server, although you need to adjust the device_spec field in the  XkbDescRec  accordingly.
       Note  that  symbol  interpretations  in a compatibility map ( sym_interpret, the vector of
       XkbSymInterpretRec structures) are also allocated using this same function.

       XkbSetCompatMap copies compatibility map information from the keyboard description in  xkb
       to the server specified in display device_spec field of xkb.  Unless you have specifically
       modified this field, it is the default keyboard device.  which specifies the compatibility
       map components to be set, and is an inclusive OR of the bits shown in Table 1.


                 Table 1 Compatibility Map Component Masks
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
       Mask                 Value    Affecting
       ---------------------------------------------------------------
       XkbSymInterpMask     (1<<0)   Symbol interpretations
       XkbGroupCompatMask   (1<<1)   Group maps
       XkbAllCompatMask     (0x3)    All compatibility map components

       After  updating its compatibility map for the specified device, if update_actions is True,
       the server applies the new compatibility map to its entire keyboard for the device to gen-
       erate  a  new  set  of key semantics, compatibility state, and a new core keyboard map. If
       update_actions is False, the new compatibility map is not used to generate  any  modifica-
       tions  to  the  current  device semantics, state, or core keyboard map. One reason for not
       applying the compatibility map immediately would be if one server was being configured  to
       match  another  on  a  piecemeal  basis; the map should not be applied until everything is
       updated. To force an update at a later time, use XkbSetCompatMap specifying which as  zero
       and update_actions as True.

       XkbSetCompatMap  returns  True  if  successful  and  False if unsuccessful. The server may
       report problems it encounters  when  processing  the  request  subsequently  via  protocol
       errors.

RETURN VALUES
       True           The XkbSetCompatMap function returns True if successful.

       False          The XkbSetCompatMap function returns False if unsuccessful.

STRUCTURES
       The  complete  description  of  an  Xkb  keyboard is given by an XkbDescRec. The component
       structures in the XkbDescRec represent the major Xkb components.

       typedef struct {
          struct _XDisplay * display;      /* connection to X server */
          unsigned short     flags;        /* private to Xkb, do not modify */
          unsigned short     device_spec;  /* device of interest */
          KeyCode            min_key_code; /* minimum keycode for device */
          KeyCode            max_key_code; /* maximum keycode for device */
          XkbControlsPtr     ctrls;        /* controls */
          XkbServerMapPtr    server;       /* server keymap */
          XkbClientMapPtr    map;          /* client keymap */
          XkbIndicatorPtr    indicators;   /* indicator map */
          XkbNamesPtr        names;        /* names for all components */
          XkbCompatMapPtr    compat;       /* compatibility map */
          XkbGeometryPtr     geom;         /* physical geometry of keyboard */
       } XkbDescRec, *XkbDescPtr;

       The display field points to an X display structure. The flags  field  is  private  to  the
       library:  modifying flags may yield unpredictable results. The device_spec field specifies
       the device identifier of the keyboard input device, or XkbUseCoreKeyboard, which specifies
       the  core  keyboard device. The min_key_code and max_key_code fields specify the least and
       greatest keycode that can be returned by the keyboard.

       Each structure component has a corresponding mask bit that is used in  function  calls  to
       indicate that the structure should be manipulated in some manner, such as allocating it or
       freeing it. These masks and their relationships to the fields in the XkbDescRec are  shown
       in Table 2.


               Table 2 Mask Bits for XkbDescRec
       --------------------------------------------------
       Mask Bit               XkbDescRec Field   Value
       --------------------------------------------------
       XkbControlsMask        ctrls              (1L<<0)
       XkbServerMapMask       server             (1L<<1)
       XkbIClientMapMask      map                (1L<<2)
       XkbIndicatorMapMask    indicators         (1L<<3)
       XkbNamesMask           names              (1L<<4)
       XkbCompatMapMask       compat             (1L<<5)
       XkbGeometryMask        geom               (1L<<6)
       XkbAllComponentsMask   All Fields         (0x7f)

       The XkbSymInterpretRec structure specifies a symbol interpretation:

           typedef struct {
               KeySym        sym;         /* keysym of interest or NULL */
               unsigned char flags;       /* XkbSI_AutoRepeat, XkbSI_LockingKey */
               unsigned char match;       /* specifies how mods is interpreted */
               unsigned char mods;        /* modifier bits, correspond to eight real modifiers */
               unsigned char virtual_mod; /* 1 modifier to add to key virtual mod map */
               XkbAnyAction  act;         /* action to bind to symbol position on key */
           } XkbSymInterpretRec,*XkbSymInterpretPtr;
