NAME

       XkbAllocServerMap - Allocate and initialize an empty server map description record

SYNOPSIS

       Status XkbAllocServerMap (XkbDescPtr xkb, unsigned int which, unsigned int count_acts);

ARGUMENTS

       - xkb  keyboard description in which to allocate server map

       - which
              mask selecting map components to allocate

       - count_acts
              value of num_acts field in map to be allocated

DESCRIPTION

       XkbAllocServerMap allocates and initializes an empty server map in the server field of the
       keyboard description specified by xkb.   The  which  parameter  specifies  the  particular
       components of the server map structure to allocate, as specified in Table 1.

       XkbExplicitComponentsMask   The min_key_code and max_key_code fields
                                   of  the  xkb  parameter  are   used   to
                                   allocate   the  explicit  field  of  the
                                   server map.

       XkbKeyActionsMask           The min_key_code and max_key_code fields
                                   of   the   xkb  parameter  are  used  to
                                   allocate  the  key_acts  field  of   the
                                   server  map. The count_acts parameter is
                                   used to allocate the acts field  of  the
                                   server map.

       XkbKeyBehaviorsMask         The min_key_code and max_key_code fields
                                   of  the  xkb  parameter  are   used   to
                                   allocate  the  behaviors  field  of  the
                                   server map.

       XkbVirtualModMapMask        The min_key_code and max_key_code fields
                                   of   the   xkb  parameter  are  used  to
                                   allocate the vmodmap field of the server
                                   map.

       If  the  server  map  of  the  keyboard description is not NULL and any fields are already
       allocated in the server map, XkbAllocServerMap does not overwrite the existing values. The
       only  exception  is  with  the acts array. If the count_acts parameter is greater than the
       current num_acts field of the server map, XkbAllocServerMap resizes  the  acts  array  and
       resets the num_acts field accordingly.

       If  XkbAllocServerMap  is  successful, it returns Success. Otherwise, it can return either
       BadMatch or BadAlloc errors.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadMatch       A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an  argument
                      has correct type and range, but is otherwise invalid

       BadValue       An argument is out of range

NOTES

       The  min_key_code  and  max_key_code  fields of the xkb parameter must be legal values. If
       they are not valid, XkbAllocServerMap returns BadValue.
