NAME

       XkbAddGeomProperty - Add one property to an existing keyboard geometry description

SYNOPSIS

       XkbPropertyPtr  XkbAddGeomProperty  (XkbGeometryPtr geom, _Xconst char *name, _Xconst char
              *value);

ARGUMENTS

       - geom geometry to be updated

       - name name of the new property

       - value
              value for the new property

DESCRIPTION

       Xkb provides functions to add a single new element to the top-level keyboard geometry.  In
       each  case  the  num_  *  fields of the corresponding structure is incremented by 1. These
       functions do not change sz_* unless there is no more room in  the  array.  Some  of  these
       functions  fill  in  the  values  of the element's structure from the arguments. For other
       functions, you must explicitly write code to fill the structure's elements.

       The top-level geometry description includes a list of  geometry  properties.   A  geometry
       property  associates  an  arbitrary  string  with an equally arbitrary name. Programs that
       display images of keyboards can use  geometry  properties  as  hints,  but  they  are  not
       interpreted by Xkb. No other geometry structures refer to geometry properties.

       XkbAddGeomProperty  adds  one  property  with the specified name and value to the keyboard
       geometry specified by geom. XkbAddGeomProperty returns NULL if any of  the  parameters  is
       empty  or  if it was not able to allocate space for the property. To allocate space for an
       arbitrary number of properties, use the XkbAllocGeomProps function.

STRUCTURES

           typedef struct _XkbProperty {
               char *         name;       /* property name */
               char *         value;      /* property value */
           } XkbPropertyRec,*XkbPropertyPtr;
