NAME¶
XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads - Allocate doodads that are specific to a section
SYNOPSIS¶
Status XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads (XkbSectionPtr
section, int num_needed);
ARGUMENTS¶
- - section
- section for which doodads should be allocated
- - num_needed
- number of new doodads required
DESCRIPTION¶
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a
keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify keyboard
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.
XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads allocates
num_needed doodads and adds
them to the specified
section. No initialization of the doodads is
done.
To free geometry doodads, use
XkbFreeGeomDoodads.
DIAGNOSTICS¶
- BadAlloc
- Unable to allocate storage
- BadValue
- An argument is out of range
