XKB FUNCTIONS                               XkbCopyKeyTypes(3x11)



NAME
     XkbCopyKeyTypes - Copy more than one XkbKeyTypeRec structure

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

     Status XkbCopyKeyTypes  (XkbKeyTypePtr  from,  XkbKeyTypePtr
          into, int num_types);

ARGUMENTS
     - from
          pointer to array of XkbKeyTypeRecs to copy

     - into
          pointer to array of XkbKeyTypeRecs to change

     - num_types
          number of types to copy

DESCRIPTION
     XkbCopyKeyTypes copies  num_types  XkbKeyTypeRec  structures
     from the array specified by from into the array specified by
     into. It  is  intended  for  copying  between,  rather  than
     within, keyboard descriptions, so it doesn't check for over-
     laps. The same rules that apply to the from and into parame-
     ters  in  XkbCopyKeyType apply to each entry of the from and
     into arrays of XkbCopyKeyTypes.  If  any  allocation  errors
     occur  while  copying  from to into, XkbCopyKeyTypes returns
     BadAlloc. Otherwise, XkbCopyKeyTypes copies from to into and
     returns Success.

RETURN VALUES
     Success        The XkbCopyKeyTypes function returns  Success
                    when there are no allocation errors.

STRUCTURES
     Key types are used to determine the shift  level  of  a  key
     given the current state of the keyboard. The set of all pos-
     sible key types for the Xkb keyboard description are held in
     the  types  field  of  the  client  map, whose total size is
     stored in  size_types,  and  whose  total  number  of  valid
     entries  is stored in num_types. Key types are defined using
     the following structure:

     typedef struct {                   /* Key Type */
         XkbModsRec        mods;        /* modifiers used to compute shift level */
         unsigned char     num_levels;  /* total # shift levels, do not modify
     directly */
         unsigned char     map_count;   /* # entries in map, preserve (if non-NULL)
     */
         XkbKTMapEntryPtr  map;         /* vector of modifiers for each shift level
     */

         XkbModsPtr        preserve;    /* mods to preserve for corresponding map
     entry */
         Atom              name;        /* name of key type */
         Atom *            level_names; /* array of names of each shift level */
     } XkbKeyTypeRec, *XkbKeyTypePtr;
