XkbCopyKeyTypes(3)                XKB FUNCTIONS               XkbCopyKeyTypes(3)




NAME

       XkbCopyKeyTypes - Copy more than one XkbKeyTypeRec structure


SYNOPSIS

       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 overlaps. The same rules that apply to the from and into
       parameters 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 possible 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;


DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage
