XkbGetKeyBehaviors(3)


NAME

   XkbGetKeyBehaviors  -  Obtain the behaviors (the behaviors array) for a
   subset of the keys in a keyboard description from the server

SYNOPSIS

   Status XkbGetKeyBehaviors (Display *dpy, unsigned int  first,  unsigned
          int num, XkbDescPtr xkb);

ARGUMENTS

   - dpy  connection to server

   - first
          keycode of first key to get

   - num  number of keys for which behaviors are desired

   - xkb  Xkb description to contain the result

DESCRIPTION

   XkbGetKeyBehaviors  sends  a  request  to  the  server  to  obtain  the
   behaviors for num keys on the keyboard  starting  with  the  key  whose
   keycode  is  first.   It waits for a reply and returns the behaviors in
   the server->behaviors field of xkb.  If successful,  XkbGetKeyBehaviors
   returns Success.

   If  the  server  map  in  the  xkb  parameter  has  not been allocated,
   XkbGetKeyBehaviors allocates and initializes it  before  obtaining  the
   actions.

   If  the  server  does  not have a compatible version of Xkb, or the Xkb
   extension has not been properly initialized, XkbGetKeyBehaviors returns
   BadAccess.  If  num  is  less  than  1  or greater than XkbMaxKeyCount,
   XkbGetKeyBehaviors returns BadValue. If any  allocation  errors  occur,
   XkbGetKeyBehaviors returns BadAlloc.

DIAGNOSTICS

   BadAccess      The Xkb extension has not been properly initialized

   BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

   BadValue       An argument is out of range
