DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free sub-
components of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions tocreate or modify keyboard geometries. Note that these func-
tions 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.XkbAllocGeomProps allocates space for num_needed properties
and adds them to the specified geometry geom. No initializa-
tion of the properties is done. A geometry property associ-
ates an arbitrary string with an equally arbitrary name. Geometry properties can be used to provide hints to programsthat display images of keyboards, but they are not inter-
preted by Xkb. No other geometry structures refer to geometry properties. DIAGNOSTICS BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage BadValue An argument is out of rangeATTRIBUTES
