.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP
.I \- xkb
keyboard description to be changed
.TP
.I \- key
keycode for key of interest
.TP
.I \- n_groups
new number of groups for key
.TP
.I \- groups
mask indicating groups to change
.TP
.I \- new_types_in
indices for new groups specified in groups
.TP
.I \- p_changes
notes changes made to xkb
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey
reallocates the symbols and actions bound to the key, if necessary, and
initializes any new symbols
or actions to NoSymbol or NoAction, as appropriate. If the p_changes parameter
is not NULL,
.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey
adds the XkbKeySymsMask to the changes field of
.I p_changes
and modifies the
.I first_key_sym
and
.I num_key_syms
fields of
.I p_changes
to include the
.I key
that was changed. See STRUCTURE for more information on the XkbMapChangesPtr
structure. If
successful,
.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey
returns Success.
The
.I n_groups
parameter specifies the new number of groups for the key. The
.I groups
parameter is a mask specifying the groups for which new types are supplied and
is a bitwise
inclusive OR of the following masks: XkbGroup1Mask, XkbGroup2Mask,
XkbGroup3Mask, and XkbGroup4Mask.
The
.I new_types_in
parameter is an integer array of length
.I n_groups.
Each entry represents the type to use for the associated group and is an index
into
.I xkb->map->types.
The
.I new_types_in
array is indexed by group index; if
.I n_groups
is four and
.I groups
only has Group1Mask and Group3Mask set,
.I new_types_in
looks like this:
.nf
new_types_in[0] = type for Group1
new_types_in[1] = ignored
new_types_in[2] = type for Group3
new_types_in[3] = ignored
.fi
For convenience, Xkb provides the following constants to use as indices to the
groups:
.TS
c s
l l
l l.

XkbGroup1Index 0
XkbGroup2Index 1
XkbGroup3Index 2
XkbGroup4Index 3
.TE
If the Xkb extension has not been properly initialized,
.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey
returns BadAccess. If the
.I xkb
parameter it not valid (that is, it is NULL or it does not contain a valid
client map),
.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey
returns BadMatch. If the
.I key
is not a valid keycode,
.I n_groups
is greater than XkbNumKbdGroups, or the
.I groups
mask does not contain any of the valid group mask bits,
.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey
returns BadValue. If it is necessary to resize the key symbols or key actions
arrays and any
allocation errors occur,
.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey
returns BadAlloc.
.SH STRUCTURES
.LP
Use the XkbMapChangesRec structure to identify and track partial modifications
to the mapping
components and to reduce the amount of traffic between the server and clients.

.SH DIAGNOSTICS
.TP 15
.B BadAccess
The Xkb extension has not been properly initialized
.TP 15
.B BadAlloc
Unable to allocate storage
.TP 15
.B BadMatch
A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has
correct type and
range, but is otherwise invalid
.TP 15
.B BadValue
An argument is out of range
