XkbKeySymEntry(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbKeySymEntry(3)

NAME

XkbKeySymEntry - Returns the keysym corresponding to shift level
shift and group grp from the two-dimensional array of keysyms for the
key corresponding to keycode

SYNOPSIS

KeySym XkbKeySymEntry (XkbDescPtr xkb, KeyCode keycode, int shift,
int grp);

ARGUMENTS

xkb Xkb description of interest

keycode
keycode of interest

shift shift level of interest

grp group of interest

DESCRIPTION

The key width and number of groups associated with a key are used to
form a small two-dimensional array of KeySyms for a key. This array
may be different sizes for different keys. The array for a single key
is stored as a linear list, in row-major order. The arrays for all of
the keys are stored in the syms field of the client map. There is one
row for each group associated with a key and one column for each
level. The index corresponding to a given group and shift level is
computed as:

idx = group_index * key_width + shift_level

The offset field of the key_sym_map entry for a key is used to access
the beginning of the array.

XkbKeySymEntry returns the keysym corresponding to shift level shift
and group grp from the two-dimensional array of keysyms for the key
corresponding to keycode.
