XkbAddGeomProperty(3)                           XKB FUNCTIONS                          XkbAddGeomProperty(3)



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

SYNOPSIS
       XkbPropertyPtr XkbAddGeomProperty ( geom, name, value )
             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 asso-ciates associates
       ciates an arbitrary string with an equally arbitrary name. Programs that display images of  keyboards
       can  use  geometry properties as hints, but they are not interpreted by Xkb. No other geometry struc-tures structures
       tures refer to geometry properties.

       XkbAddGeomProperty adds one property with the specified name and value to the keyboard geometry spec-ified specified
       ified  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.

STRUCTURES
           typedef struct _XkbProperty {
               char *         name;       /* property name */
               char *         value;      /* property value */
           } XkbPropertyRec,*XkbPropertyPtr;
