XkbTranslateKeyCode - Translate a keycode to a key symbol and modifiers
Bool XkbTranslateKeyCode (XkbDescPtr
xkb, KeyCode key, unsigned int
mods, unsigned int *mods_rtrn,
KeySym *keysym_rtrn);
- - xkb
- keyboard description to use for translation
- - key
- keycode to translate
- - mods
- modifiers to apply when translating key
- - mods_rtrn
- backfilled with consumed modifiers
- - keysym_rtrn
- keysym resulting from translation
mods_rtrn is backfilled with the modifiers consumed by the translation
process. mods is a bitwise inclusive OR of the legal modifier masks:
ShiftMask, LockMask, ControlMask, Mod1Mask, Mod2Mask, Mod3Mask, Mod4Mask,
Mod5Mask.The AlwaysConsumeShiftAndLock library control (see below), if
enabled, causes XkbTranslateKeyCode to consume shift and lock.
XkbTranslateKeyCode returns True if the translation resulted in a
keysym, and False if it resulted in NoSymbol.
The AlwaysConsumeShiftAndLock control, if enabled, forces
XLookupString to consume the Shift and Lock modifiers when processing
all keys, even if the definition for the key type does not specify these
modifiers. The AlwaysConsumeShiftAndLock control is unset by default.
