XKB FUNCTIONS                              XkbAllocKeyboard(3x11)



NAME
     XkbAllocKeyboard -   Creates  a  keyboard  description  from
     scratch

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

     XkbDescRec XkbAllocKeyboard (void);

DESCRIPTION
     Applications seldom need to  directly  allocate  a  keyboard
     description; calling XkbGetKeyboard usually suffices. In the
     event  you  need  to  create  a  keyboard  description  from
     scratch,  however, use XkbAllocKeyboard rather than directly
     calling malloc.

     If XkbAllocKeyboard fails to allocate the keyboard  descrip-
     tion, it returns NULL. Otherwise, it returns a pointer to an
     empty keyboard description structure. The device_spec  field
     will  have  been  initialized to XkbUseCoreKbd. You may then
     either fill in the structure components or use Xkb functions
     to  obtain  values  for the structure components from a key-
     board device.
