XkbGetKeySyms(3)		 XKB FUNCTIONS		      XkbGetKeySyms(3)



NAME
       XkbGetKeySyms  -	 Obtain the symbols for a subset of the keys in a key-
       board description

SYNOPSIS
       Status XkbGetKeySyms (Display *dpy, unsigned int	 first,	 unsigned  int
	      num, XkbDescPtr xkb);

ARGUMENTS
       - dpy  connection to X server

       - first
	      keycode of first key to get

       - num  number of keycodes for which syms desired

       - xkb  Xkb description to be updated

DESCRIPTION
       XkbGetKeySyms  sends  a	request	 to  the  server  to obtain the set of
       keysyms bound to num keys starting with the key whose keycode is first.
       It  waits  for a reply and returns the keysyms in the map.syms field of
       xkb.  If successful, XkbGetKeySyms returns Success. The	xkb  parameter
       must be a pointer to a valid Xkb keyboard description.

       If  the	client	map  in	 the  xkb  parameter  has  not been allocated,
       XkbGetKeySyms allocates and initializes it before  obtaining  the  sym-
       bols.

       If  a  compatible  version of Xkb is not available in the server or the
       Xkb extension has not been properly initialized, XkbGetKeySyms  returns
       BadAccess.  If  num  is	less  than  1  or greater than XkbMaxKeyCount,
       XkbGetKeySyms  returns  BadValue.  If  any  allocation  errors	occur,
       XkbGetKeySyms returns BadAlloc.

RETURN VALUES
       Success	      The  XkbGetKeySyms function returns Success if it gets a
		      reply to a request to the server to obtain  the  set  of
		      keysyms  bound  to  num keys starting with the key whose
		      keycode is first.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc	      Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue	      An argument is out of range
