XkbAllocDeviceLedInfo(3)          XKB FUNCTIONS         XkbAllocDeviceLedInfo(3)




NAME

       XkbAllocDeviceLedInfo - Obtain an XkbDeviceLedInfoRec structure


SYNOPSIS

       Status XkbAllocDeviceLedInfo (XkbDeviceInfoPtr device_info, int
              num_needed);


ARGUMENTS

       device_info
              structure in which to allocate LED space

       num_needed
              number of indicators to allocate space for


DESCRIPTION

       XkbAllocDeviceLedInfo allocates space for an XkbDeviceLedInfoRec and
       places it in device_info.  If num_needed is nonzero, num_needed
       XkbIndicatorMapRec structures are also allocated and linked into the
       XkbDeviceLedInfoRec structure. If you request XkbIndicatorMapRec
       structures be allocated using this request, you must initialize them
       explicitly. All other fields are initialized to zero.

       To initialize an XkbDeviceLedInfoRec structure, use XkbAddDeviceLedInfo.


STRUCTURES

       Information about X Input Extension devices is transferred between a
       client program and the Xkb extension in an XkbDeviceInfoRec structure:

           typedef struct {
               char *               name;          /* name for device */
               Atom                 type;          /* name for class of devices */
               unsigned short       device_spec;   /* device of interest */
               Bool                 has_own_state; /* True=>this device has its own state */
               unsigned short       supported;     /* bits indicating supported capabilities */
               unsigned short       unsupported;   /* bits indicating unsupported capabilities */
               unsigned short       num_btns;      /* number of entries in btn_acts */
               XkbAction *          btn_acts;      /* button actions */
               unsigned short       sz_leds;       /* total number of entries in LEDs vector */
               unsigned short       num_leds;      /* number of valid entries in LEDs vector */
               unsigned short       dflt_kbd_fb;   /* input extension ID of default (core kbd) indicator */
               unsigned short       dflt_led_fb;   /* input extension ID of default indicator feedback */
               XkbDeviceLedInfoPtr  leds;          /* LED descriptions */
           } XkbDeviceInfoRec, *XkbDeviceInfoPtr;


           typedef struct {
               unsigned short      led_class;        /* class for this LED device*/
               unsigned short      led_id;           /* ID for this LED device */
               unsigned int        phys_indicators;  /* bits for which LEDs physically present */
               unsigned int        maps_present;     /* bits for which LEDs have maps in maps */
               unsigned int        names_present;    /* bits for which LEDs are in names */
               unsigned int        state;            /* 1 bit => corresponding LED is on */
               Atom                names[XkbNumIndicators];   /* names for LEDs */
               XkbIndicatorMapRec  maps;             /* indicator maps for each LED */
           } XkbDeviceLedInfoRec, *XkbDeviceLedInfoPtr;

       Each indicator has its own set of attributes that specify whether clients
       can explicitly set its state and whether it tracks the keyboard state.
       The attributes of each indicator are held in the maps array, which is an
       array of XkbIndicatorRec structures:

           typedef struct {
               unsigned char   flags;            /* how the indicator can be changed */
               unsigned char   which_groups;     /* match criteria for groups */
               unsigned char   groups;           /* which keyboard groups the indicator watches */
               unsigned char   which_mods;       /* match criteria for modifiers */
               XkbModsRec      mods;             /* which modifiers the indicator watches */
               unsigned int    ctrls;            /* which controls the indicator watches */
           } XkbIndicatorMapRec, *XkbIndicatorMapPtr;

       This indicator map specifies for each indicator:


       o    The conditions under which the keyboard modifier state affects the
            indicator

       o    The conditions under which the keyboard group state affects the
            indicator

       o    The conditions under which the state of the boolean controls affects
            the indicator

       o    The effect (if any) of attempts to explicitly change the state of
            the indicator using the functions XkbSetControls or
            XChangeKeyboardControl
