XkbNoteDeviceChanges(3)                         XKB FUNCTIONS                        XkbNoteDeviceChanges(3)



NAME
       XkbNoteDeviceChanges - Note device changes reported in an XkbExtensionDeviceNotify event

SYNOPSIS
       void XkbNoteDeviceChanges ( old, new, wanted )
             XkbDeviceChangesPtr old;
             XkbExtensionDeviceNotifyEvent * new;
             unsigned int wanted;

ARGUMENTS
       - old  structure tracking state changes

       - new  event indicating state changes

       - wanted
              mask indicating changes to note

DESCRIPTION
       The  wanted  field  specifies the changes that should be noted in old, and is composed of the bitwise
       inclusive OR of one or more of the masks from Table 1. The reason field of the event in new indicates
       the  types  of  changes the event is reporting.  XkbNoteDeviceChanges updates the XkbDeviceChangesRec
       specified by old with the changes that are both specified in wanted and contained in new->reason.

       To update a local copy of the state and configuration of an X input extension device with the changes
       previously noted in an XkbDeviceChangesRec structure, use XkbGetDeviceInfoChanges.

STRUCTURES
       Changes to an Xkb extension device may be tracked by listening to XkbDeviceExtensionNotify events and
       accumulating the changes in an XkbDeviceChangesRec structure. The changes noted in the structure  may
       then  be  used in subsequent operations to update either a server configuration or a local copy of an
       Xkb extension device configuration. The changes structure is defined as follows:

       typedef struct _XkbDeviceChanges {
           unsigned int         changed;       /* bits indicating what has changed */
           unsigned short       first_btn;     /* number of first button which changed, if any */
           unsigned short       num_btns;      /* number of buttons that have changed */
           XkbDeviceLedChangesRec leds;
       } XkbDeviceChangesRec,*XkbDeviceChangesPtr;
