NAME

       XkbAllocGeomProps - Allocate geometry properties

SYNOPSIS

       Status XkbAllocGeomProps (XkbGeometryPtr geom, int num_needed);

ARGUMENTS

       geom   geometry for which properties should be allocated

       num_needed
              number of new properties required

DESCRIPTION

       Xkb  provides  a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a keyboard geometry. Use these
       functions to create or modify keyboard geometries.  Note that these functions merely allocate  space  for
       the  new  element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the values explicitly in your code. These allocation
       functions increase sz_* but never touch num_* (unless there is an allocation failure, in which case  they
       reset  both sz_* and num_* to zero). These functions return Success if they succeed, BadAlloc if they are
       not able to allocate space, or BadValue if a parameter is not as expected.

       XkbAllocGeomProps allocates space for num_needed properties and adds them to the specified geometry geom.
       No initialization of the properties is done. A geometry property associates an arbitrary string  with  an
       equally  arbitrary name. Geometry properties can be used to provide hints to programs that display images
       of keyboards, but they are not interpreted by  Xkb.  No  other  geometry  structures  refer  to  geometry
       properties.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue       An argument is out of range
