As a +result, most applications do not need to directly allocate client and server +maps. + +If you change the number of key types or construct map components without +loading the necessary components from the X server, do not allocate any map +components directly using +.I malloc +or +.I Xmalloc. +Instead, use the Xkb allocators, +.I XkbAllocClientMap, +and +.I XkbAllocServerMap. + +Similarly, use the Xkb destructors, +.I XkbFreeClientMap, +and +.I XkbFreeServerMap +instead of +.I free +or +.I Xfree. + +.I XkbAllocClientMap +allocates and initializes an empty client map in the +.I map +field of the keyboard description specified by +.I xkb. +The +.I which +parameter specifies the particular components of the client map structure to +allocate and is a mask composed by a bitwise inclusive OR of one or more of the +masks shown in Table 1. +.bp +.TS +c s +l l +l lw(4i). +Table 1 XkbAllocClientMap Masks +_ +Mask Effect +_ +XkbKeyTypesMask T{ +The type_count field specifies the number of entries to preallocate for the +types field of the client map.

The fields are +allocated to contain the maximum number of entries necessary for max_key_code - +min_key_code + 1 keys. +T} +.sp +XkbModifierMapMask T{ +The min_key_code and max_key_code fields of the xkb parameter are used to +allocate the modmap field of the client map.

If they are not valid, +.I XkbAllocClientMap +returns BadValue. + +If the client map of the keyboard description is not NULL, and any fields are +already allocated in the client map, +.I XkbAllocClientMap +does not overwrite the existing values; it simply ignores that part of the +request. The only exception is the +.I types +array. If +.I type_count +is greater than the current +.I num_types +field of the client map, +.I XkbAllocClientMap +resizes the +.I types +array and resets the +.I num_types +field accordingly. + +If +.I XkbAllocClientMap +is successful, it returns Success.
