NAME

       XkbAllocGeomKeys  - Allocate space for an arbitrary number of keys to a
       row

SYNOPSIS

       Status XkbAllocGeomKeys (XkbRowPtr row, int num_needed);

ARGUMENTS

       - row  row to which keys should be allocated

       - num_needed
              number of new keys 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.

       XkbAllocGeomKeys allocates num_needed keys and adds them  to  the  row.
       No initialization of the keys is done.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue       An argument is out of range
