NAME

       XkbAllocGeomRows - Allocate rows in a section

SYNOPSIS

       Status XkbAllocGeomRows (XkbSectionPtr section, int num_needed);

ARGUMENTS

       - section
              section for which rows should be allocated

       - num_needed
              number of new rows 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.

       XkbAllocGeomRows  allocates  num_needed  rows  and  adds  them  to  the
       section.  No initialization of the rows is done.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue       An argument is out of range
