XkbAllocKeyboard(3)		 XKB FUNCTIONS		   XkbAllocKeyboard(3)

NAME
       XkbAllocKeyboard	-  Creates a keyboard description from scratch

SYNOPSIS

       XkbDescRec XkbAllocKeyboard (void);

DESCRIPTION
       Applications  seldom  need to directly allocate a keyboard description;
       calling XkbGetKeyboard usually suffices.	In the event you need to  cre-
       ate  a keyboard description from	scratch, however, use XkbAllocKeyboard
       rather than directly calling malloc.

       If XkbAllocKeyboard fails to allocate the keyboard description, it  re-
       turns  NULL.   Otherwise, it returns a pointer to an empty keyboard de-
       scription structure. The	device_spec field will have  been  initialized
       to  XkbUseCoreKbd. You may then either fill in the structure components
       or use Xkb functions to obtain values for the structure components from
       a keyboard device.
