This capability is controlled via two masks +maintained in the X server on a per-client basis. There is no client-side Xkb +data structure corresponding to these masks. Whenever the client exits for +any reason, any boolean controls specified in the +.I auto-reset mask +are set to the corresponding value from the +.I auto-reset values +mask. This makes it +possible for clients to "clean up after themselves" automatically, even if +abnormally terminated. The bits used in the masks correspond to the +EnabledControls control bits. + +For example, a client that replaces the keyboard bell with some other audible +cue might want to turn off the AudibleBell control to prevent the server from +also generating a sound and avoid cacophony. If the client were to exit +without resetting the AudibleBell control, the user would be left without any +feedback at all. Setting AudibleBell in both the auto-reset mask and +auto-reset values guarantees that the audible bell will be turned back on +when the client exits. + +.I XkbGetAutoResetControls +backfills +.I auto_ctrls +and +.I auto_values +with the AutoReset control attributes for this particular client. It returns +True if successful, and False otherwise. +.SH "RETURN VALUES" +.TP 15 +True +The +.I XkbGetAutoResetControls +function returns True when it successfully backfills +.I auto_ctrls +and +.I auto_values +with the AutoReset control attributes for this particular client. +.TP 15 +False +The +.I XkbGetAutoResetControls +function returns False when it does not successfully backfill +.I auto_ctrls +and +.I auto_values +with the AutoReset control attributes for this particular client. |
