NAME

XkbSetNamedIndicator - Names an indicator if it is not already named; toggles the state of the indicator; sets the indicator to a specified state and sets the indicator map for the indicator

SYNOPSIS

Bool XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator

(Display * dpy , unsigned int

device_spec , unsigned int led_class , unsigned int led_id , Atom name , Bool change_state , Bool state , Bool create_new , XkbIndicatorMapPtr map ); Bool XkbSetNamedIndicator (Display * dpy , Atom name , Bool change_state , Bool state , Bool create_new , XkbIndicatorMapPtr map );

ARGUMENTS

dpy

connection to the X server

device_spec

device ID, or XkbUseCoreKbd

led_class

feedback class, or XkbDfltXIClass

led_id

feedback ID, or XkbDfltXIId

name

name of the indicator to change

change_state

whether to change the indicator state or not

state

desired new state for the indicator

create_new

whether a new indicator with the specified name should be created when necessary

map

new map for the indicator

DESCRIPTION

If a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not available in the server, XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator returns False. Otherwise, it sends a request to the X server to change the indicator specified by name and returns True.

If change_state is True, XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator tells the server to change the state of the named indicator to the value specified by state . If change_state is False, then state is not used.

If an indicator with the name specified by name does not already exist, the create_new parameter tells the server whether it should create a new named indicator. If create_new is True, the server finds the first indicator that doesn’t have a name and gives it the name specified by name . If the optional parameter, map , is not NULL, XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator tells the server to change the indicator’s map to the values specified in map .

In addition, it can also generate XkbIndicatorStateNotify, XkbIndicatorMapNotify, and XkbNamesNotify events.

XkbSetNamedIndicator is a convenience function that calls XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator with a device_spec of XkbUseCoreKbd , a led_class of XkbDfltXIClass , and a led_id of XkbDfltXIId . It returns the return value from XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator .

RETURN VALUES

True

The XkbSetNamedIndicator and XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator functions return True if a compatible version of the Xkb extension is available in the server.

False

The XkbSetNamedIndicator and XkbSetNamedDeviceIndicator functions return False if a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not available in the server.

DIAGNOSTICS

BadAtom

A name is neither a valid Atom or None

BadImplementation

Invalid reply from server

BadKeyboard

device_spec does not specify a device with indicators.

BadMatch

led_id is not DfltXIId and does not specify a feedback of the class specified by led_class on the device specified by device_spec .

BadValue

led_class does not specify DfltXIClass , LedFeedbackClass , or KbdFeedbackClass .
