NAME

       XkbAllocGeomPoints - Allocate points in an outline

SYNOPSIS

       Status XkbAllocGeomPoints (XkbOutlinePtr outline, int num_needed);

ARGUMENTS

       - outline
              outline for which points should be allocated

       - num_needed
              number of new points 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.

       XkbAllocGeomPoints  allocates  space  for num_needed points in the specified outline.  The
       points are not initialized.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue       An argument is out of range
