Detailed Description

Creating, destroying and using library contexts.

Every keymap compilation request must have a context associated with it. The context keeps around state such as the include path.

Enumeration Type Documentation

Flags for context creation.

Enumerator
XKB_CONTEXT_NO_FLAGS 

Do not apply any context flags.

XKB_CONTEXT_NO_DEFAULT_INCLUDES 

Create this context with an empty include path.

XKB_CONTEXT_NO_ENVIRONMENT_NAMES 

Don't take RMLVO names from the environment.

Since
0.3.0

Function Documentation

struct xkb_context * xkb_context_new ( enum xkb_context_flags  flags)

Create a new context.

Parameters
flagsOptional flags for the context, or 0.
Returns
A new context, or NULL on failure.

The user may set some environment variables to affect default values in the context. See e.g. xkb_context_set_log_level() and xkb_context_set_log_verbosity().

struct xkb_context * xkb_context_ref ( struct xkb_context context)

Take a new reference on a context.

Returns
The passed in context.
void xkb_context_unref ( struct xkb_context context)

Release a reference on a context, and possibly free it.

Parameters
contextThe context. If it is NULL, this function does nothing.
void xkb_context_set_user_data ( struct xkb_context context,
void *  user_data 
)

Store custom user data in the context.

This may be useful in conjunction with xkb_context_set_log_fn() or other callbacks.

void * xkb_context_get_user_data ( struct xkb_context context)

Retrieves stored user data from the context.

Returns
The stored user data. If the user data wasn't set, or the passed in context is NULL, returns NULL.

This may be useful to access private user data from callbacks like a custom logging function.
