XkbKeyNumSyms(3)                  XKB FUNCTIONS                 XkbKeyNumSyms(3)




NAME

       XkbKeyNumSyms - Returns the total number of keysyms for the key
       corresponding to keycode


SYNOPSIS

       int XkbKeyNumSyms (XkbDescPtr xkb, KeyCode keycode);


ARGUMENTS

       xkb    Xkb description of interest

       keycode
              keycode of interest


DESCRIPTION

       The key width and number of groups associated with a key are used to form
       a small two-dimensional array of KeySyms for a key. This array may be
       different sizes for different keys. The array for a single key is stored
       as a linear list, in row-major order. The arrays for all of the keys are
       stored in the syms field of the client map. There is one row for each
       group associated with a key and one column for each level. The index
       corresponding to a given group and shift level is computed as:

            idx = group_index * key_width + shift_level

       The offset field of the key_sym_map entry for a key is used to access the
       beginning of the array.

       XkbKeyNumSyms returns the total number of keysyms for the key
       corresponding to keycode.
