XkbAddGeomProperty(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbAddGeomProperty(3)

NAME
XkbAddGeomProperty - Add one property to an existing keyboard geometry description

SYNOPSIS
XkbPropertyPtr XkbAddGeomProperty (XkbGeometryPtr geom, char *name, char *value);

ARGUMENTS
- geom geometry to be updated

- name name of the new property

- value
value for the new property

DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides functions to add a single new element to the top-level keyboard geometry. In
each case the num_ * fields of the corresponding structure is incremented by 1. These
functions do not change sz_* unless there is no more room in the array. Some of these
functions fill in the values of the element's structure from the arguments. For other
functions, you must explicitly write code to fill the structure's elements.

The top-level geometry description includes a list of geometry properties. A geometry
property associates an arbitrary string with an equally arbitrary name. Programs that dis-
play images of keyboards can use geometry properties as hints, but they are not inter-
preted by Xkb. No other geometry structures refer to geometry properties.

XkbAddGeomProperty adds one property with the specified name and value to the keyboard
geometry specified by geom. XkbAddGeomProperty returns NULL if any of the parameters is
empty or if it was not able to allocate space for the property. To allocate space for an
arbitrary number of properties, use the XkbAllocGeomProps function.
