XKB FUNCTIONS                            XkbIgnoreExtension(3x11)



NAME
     XkbIgnoreExtension -  Prevents core X library keyboard func-
     tions from using the X Keyboard Extension

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lX11 [ library... ]

     Bool XkbIgnoreExtension (Bool *ignore);

ARGUMENTS
     ignore
          True means ignore the extension

DESCRIPTION
     If a server supports the Xkb extension, the X  library  nor-
     mally  implements  preXkb  keyboard  functions using the Xkb
     keyboard description and  state.  The  server  Xkb  keyboard
     state  may  differ  from  the  preXkb  keyboard  state. This
     difference does not  affect  most  clients,  but  there  are
     exceptions. To allow these clients to work properly, you may
     instruct the extension not to use Xkb functionality.

     Call XkbIgnoreExtension to prevent core X  library  keyboard
     functions from using the X Keyboard Extension. You must call
     XkbIgnoreExtension before you open a server connection;  Xkb
     does  not  provide  a  way  to  enable or disable use of the
     extension once a connection is established.

     XkbIgnoreExtension tells the X library whether to use the  X
     Keyboard Extension on any subsequently opened X display con-
     nections. If ignore is True, the library does not initialize
     the  Xkb  extension when it opens a new display. This forces
     the X server to use compatibility mode and communicate  with
     the  client using only core protocol requests and events. If
     ignore is False, the  library  treats  subsequent  calls  to
     XOpenDisplay  normally  and  uses  Xkb  extension  requests,
     events, and state. Do not explicitly use Xkb on a connection
     for  which  it is disabled. XkbIgnoreExtension returns False
     if it was unable to apply the ignore request.

RETURN VALUES
     True           The XkbIgnoreExtension returns True if

     False          The XkbIgnoreExtension function returns False
                    if it was unable to apply the ignore request.
