XkbAllocGeomOutlines(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbAllocGeomOutlines(3)NAMEXkbAllocGeomOutlines - Allocate space for an arbitrary number of out‐
lines to a shape
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbAllocGeomOutlines (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 geometry. Use these functions to create or modify key‐
board geometries. Note that these functions merely allocate space for
the new element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the values explic‐
itly 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 Bad‐
Value 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
