1. NAME▲

XkbAllocDeviceLedInfo - Obtain an XkbDeviceLedInfoRec structure

2. SYNOPSIS ▲

Status XkbAllocDeviceLedInfo (XkbDeviceInfoPtr device_info , int num_needed );

3. ARGUMENTS ▲

  • - device_info
        structure in which to allocate LED space
  • - num_needed
        number of indicators to allocate space for

4. DESCRIPTION ▲

XkbAllocDeviceLedInfoallocates space for an XkbDeviceLedInfoRec and places it in device_info.If num_neededis nonzero, num_neededXkbIndicatorMapRec structures are also allocated and linked into the XkbDeviceLedInfoRec structure. If you request XkbIndicatorMapRec structures be allocated using this request, you must initialize them explicitly. All other fields are initialized to zero. To initialize an XkbDeviceLedInfoRec structure, use XkbAddDeviceLedInfo.

5. STRUCTURES ▲

Information about X Input Extension devices is transferred between a client program and the Xkb extension in an XkbDeviceInfoRec structure:

        Bool                 has_own_state; /(** True=>this device has its own state */

        XkbDeviceLedInfoPtr  leds;          /(** LED descriptions */
    } XkbDeviceInfoRec, *XkbDeviceInfoPtr;
    typedef struct {
        unsigned short      led_class;        /(** class for this LED device*/
        unsigned short      led_id;           /(** ID for this LED device */
        unsigned int        phys_indicators;  /(** bits for which LEDs physically present */
        unsigned int        maps_present;     /(** bits for which LEDs have maps in maps */
        unsigned int        names_present;    /(** bits for which LEDs are in names */
        unsigned int        state;            /(** 1 bit => corresponding LED is on */
        Atom                names[XkbNumIndicators];   /(** names for LEDs */
        XkbIndicatorMapRec  maps;             /(** indicator maps for each LED */
    } XkbDeviceLedInfoRec, *XkbDeviceLedInfoPtr;

Each indicator has its own set of attributes that specify whether clients can explicitly set its state and whether it tracks the keyboard state. The attributes of each indicator are held in the maps array, which is an array of XkbIndicatorRec structures:

 
Sélectionnez
    typedef struct {
        unsigned char   flags;            /(** how the indicator can be changed */
        unsigned char   which_groups;     /(** match criteria for groups */
        unsigned char   groups;           /(** which keyboard groups the indicator watches */
        unsigned char   which_mods;       /(** match criteria for modifiers */
        XkbModsRec      mods;             /(** which modifiers the indicator watches */
        unsigned int    ctrls;            /(** which controls the indicator watches */
    } XkbIndicatorMapRec, *XkbIndicatorMapPtr;

This indicator map specifies for each indicator:

5 The conditions under which the keyboard modifier state affects the indicator

5 The conditions under which the keyboard group state affects the indicator

5 The conditions under which the state of the boolean controls affects the indicator

5 The effect (if any) of attempts to explicitly change the state of the indicator using the functions XkbSetControls or XChangeKeyboardControl
