.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The 
.I which 
parameter is a bitwise inclusive OR of the masks in Table 1. If the needed 
components of the 
.I xkb 
structure are not already allocated, 
.I XkbGetUpdatedMap 
allocates them. 
.I XkbGetUpdatedMap 
fetches the requested information for the device specified in the XkbDescRec 
passed in the 
.I xkb 
parameter.

.TE

.I XkbGetUpdatedMap 
is synchronous; it queries the server for the desired information, waits for a 
reply, and then returns. If successful, 
.I XkbGetUpdatedMap 
returns Success. If unsuccessful, 
.I XkbGetUpdatedMap 
returns one of the following: BadAlloc (unable to allocate a component in the 
XkbDescRec structure), BadValue (some mask bits in 
.I which 
are undefined), BadImplementation (a compatible version of the Xkb extension is 
not available in the server or the reply from the server was invalid).
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.TP 15
Success
The 
.I XkbGetUpdatedMap 
function returns Success if a reply is received to the server query for the desired information.
.SH STRUCTURES
.LP
The complete description of an Xkb keyboard is given by an XkbDescRec. The 
component 
structures in the XkbDescRec represent the major Xkb components.

.nf
typedef struct {
   struct _XDisplay * display;      /\(** connection to X server */
   unsigned short     flags;        /\(** private to Xkb, do not modify */
   unsigned short     device_spec;  /\(** device of interest */
   KeyCode            min_key_code; /\(** minimum keycode for device */
   KeyCode            max_key_code; /\(** maximum keycode for device */
   XkbControlsPtr     ctrls;        /\(** controls */
   XkbServerMapPtr    server;       /\(** server keymap */
   XkbClientMapPtr    map;          /\(** client keymap */
   XkbIndicatorPtr    indicators;   /\(** indicator map */
   XkbNamesPtr        names;        /\(** names for all components */
   XkbCompatMapPtr    compat;       /\(** compatibility map */
   XkbGeometryPtr     geom;         /\(** physical geometry of keyboard */
} XkbDescRec, *XkbDescPtr;

.fi
The 
.I display 
field points to an X display structure. The 
.I flags 
field is private to the library: modifying 
.I flags 
may yield unpredictable results. The 
.I device_spec 
field specifies the device identifier of the keyboard input device, or 
XkbUseCoreKeyboard, which specifies the core keyboard device. The 
.I min_key_code
and 
.I max_key_code 
fields specify the least and greatest keycode that can be returned by the 
keyboard. 

Each structure component has a corresponding mask bit that is used in function 
calls to 
indicate that the structure should be manipulated in some manner, such as 
allocating it 
or freeing it. These masks and their relationships to the fields in the 
XkbDescRec are 
shown in Table 2.
