.TH XkbGetBounceKeysDelay __libmansuffix__ __xorgversion__ "XKB FUNCTIONS"
.SH NAME
XkbGetBounceKeysDelay \- Queries the current BounceKeys delay for a keyboard
device.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.HP
.B Bool XkbGetBounceKeysDelay
.BI "(\^Display *" "display" "\^,"
.BI "unsigned int " "device_spec" "\^,"
.BI "unsigned int *" "delay_rtrn" "\^);"
.if n .ti +5n
.if t .ti +.5i
.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP
.I \- display
connection to X server
.TP
.I \- device_spec
device ID, or XkbUseCoreKbd
.TP
.I \- delay_rtrn
backfilled with bounce keys delay, ms
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The server can generate XkbAccessXNotify events for some of the global keyboard
controls.
The detail field describes what AccessX event just occurred and can be any of
the values in
Table 1.
.TS
c s
l l
l lw(4i).
Table 1 AccessXNotify Events
_
detail Reason
_
XkbAXN_SKPress T{
A key was pressed when SlowKeys was enabled.
T}
XkbAXN_SKAccept T{
A key was accepted (held longer than the SlowKeys delay).
T}
XkbAXN_SKRelease T{
An accepted SlowKeys key was released.
T}
XkbAXN_SKReject T{
A key was rejected (released before the SlowKeys delay expired).
T}
XkbAXN_BKAccept T{
A key was accepted by BounceKeys.
T}
XkbAXN_BKReject T{
A key was rejected (pressed before the BounceKeys delay expired).
T}
XkbAXN_AXKWarning T{
AccessXKeys is about to turn on/off StickyKeys or BounceKeys.
T}
.TE
The
.I keycode
field reports the keycode of the key for which the event occurred. If the action
is related to
.I SlowKeys,
the
.I slowKeysDelay
field contains the current SlowKeys acceptance delay. If the action is related
to BounceKeys,
the
.I debounceDelay
field contains the current BounceKeys debounce delay.
Selecting for AccessX Events
To receive XkbAccessXNotify events under all possible conditions, use
.I XkbSelectEvents
and pass XkbAccesXNotifyMask in both
.I bits_to_change
and
.I values_for_bits.
To receive XkbStateNotify events only under certain conditions, use
.I XkbSelectEventDetails
using XkbAccessXNotify as the
.I event_type
and specifying the desired state changes in
.I bits_to_change
and
.I values_for_bits
using mask bits from Table 2.

.TE
Some users may accidentally "bounce" on a key when they release it. They press
it once, then accidentally press it again after they release it. The BounceKeys
control temporarily disables a key after it has been pressed, effectively
"debouncing" the keyboard. The period of time the key is disabled after it is
released is known as the
.I BounceKeys delay.
BounceKeys is a boolean control.
When the BounceKeys control is active, the server reports acceptance or
rejection of any key to interested clients by sending an appropriate
AccessXNotify event (see STRUCTURES).
.I XkbGetBounceKeysDelay
requests the attributes of the BounceKeys control from the server, waits for a
reply, and backfills
.I delay_rtrn
with the BounceKeys delay attribute.
.I XkbGetBounceKeysDelay
returns True if successful; if a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not
available in the server
.I XkbGetSlowKeysDelay
returns False.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.TP 15
True
The
.I XkbGetBounceKeysDelay
function returns True when it successfully requests the attributes of the
BounceKeys control from the server, waits for a
reply, and backfills
.I delay_rtrn
with the BounceKeys delay attribute.
.TP 15
False
The
.I XkbGetBounceKeysDelay
function returns False if a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not
available in the server.
.SH STRUCTURES
.LP
The structure for the XkbAccessXNotify event type is as follows:
.nf
typedef struct {
int type; /\(** Xkb extension base event code */
unsigned long serial; /\(** X server serial number for event */
Bool send_event; /\(** True => synthetically generated */
Display * display; /\(** server connection where event generated */
Time time; /\(** server time when event generated */
int xkb_type; /\(** XkbAccessXNotify */
int device; /\(** Xkb device ID, will not be XkbUseCoreKbd
*/
int detail; /\(** XkbAXN_* */
KeyCode keycode; /\(** key of event */
int slowKeysDelay; /\(** current SlowKeys delay */
int debounceDelay; /\(** current debounce delay */
} XkbAccessXNotifyEvent;
