XkbFreeNames(3)                                 XKB FUNCTIONS                                XkbFreeNames(3)



NAME
       XkbFreeNames - Free symbolic names structures

SYNOPSIS
       void XkbFreeNames ( xkb, which, free_map )
             XkbDescPtr xkb;
             unsigned int which;
             Bool free_map;

ARGUMENTS
       - xkb  keyboard description for which names are to be freed

       - which
              mask of names components to be freed

       - free_map
              True => XkbNamesRec structure itself should be freed

DESCRIPTION
       Do not free symbolic names structures directly using free or XFree.  Use XkbFreeNames instead.

       The which parameter is the bitwise inclusive OR of the valid names mask bits defined in Table 1.

       Xkb  provides several functions that work with symbolic names. Each of these functions uses a mask to
       specify individual fields of the structures described above. These masks and their  relationships  to
       the fields in a keyboard description are shown in Table 1.
