Each entry is a mask composed of a bitwise inclusive +OR of the legal real modifiers: ShiftMask, LockMask, ControlMask, Mod1Mask, +Mod2Mask, Mod3Mask, Mod4Mask, and Mod5Mask. If a bit is set in a +.I modmap +entry, the corresponding key is bound to that modifier. + +Pressing or releasing the key bound to a modifier changes the modifier set and +unset state. The particular manner in which the modifier set and unset state +changes is determined by the behavior and actions assigned to the key. + +.I XkbGetKeyModifierMap +sends a request to the server for the modifier mappings for +.I num +keys starting with the key whose keycode is +.I first. +It waits for a reply and places the results in the +.I xkb->map->modmap +array. If successful, +.I XkbGetKeyModifier +returns Success. + +If the map component of the +.I xkb +parameter has not been allocated, +.I XkbGetKeyModifierMap +allocates and initializes it. + +If a compatible version of Xkb is not available in the server or the Xkb +extension has not been properly initialized, +.I XkbGetKeySyms +returns BadAccess. If any allocation errors occur while obtaining the modifier +map, +.I XkbGetKeyModifierMap +returns BadAlloc. +.SH DIAGNOSTICS +.TP 15 +.B BadAccess +The Xkb extension has not been properly initialized +.TP 15 +.B BadAlloc +Unable to allocate storage |
