XkbAllocNames(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbAllocNames(3)
NAME
XkbAllocNames - Allocate symbolic names structures
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbAllocNames ( xkb, which, num_rg, num_key_aliases )
XkbDescPtr xkb;
unsigned int which;
int num_rg;
int num_key_aliases;
ARGUMENTS
- xkb keyboard description for which names are to be allocated
- which
mask of names to be allocated
- num_rg
total number of radio group names needed
- num_key_aliases
total number of key aliases needed
DESCRIPTION
Most applications do not need to directly allocate symbolic names
structures. Do not allocate a names structure directly using malloc or
Xmalloc if your application changes the number of key aliases or radio
groups or constructs a symbolic names structure without loading the
necessary components from the X server. Instead use XkbAllocNames.
XkbAllocNames can return BadAlloc, BadMatch, and BadValue errors. The
which parameter is the bitwise inclusive OR of the valid names mask
bits defined in Table 1.

Do not free symbolic names structures directly using free or XFree.
Use XkbFreeNames instead.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadMatch A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the
server or an argument has correct type and range, but is
otherwise invalid
BadValue An argument is out of range
