NAME
       XkbGetNames - Obtain symbolic names from the server

SYNOPSIS
       Status XkbGetNames (Display *dpy, unsigned int which, XkbDescPtr Xkb);

ARGUMENTS
       - dpy  connection to the X server

       - which
              mask of names or map components to be updated

       - Xkb  keyboard description to be updated

DESCRIPTION
       XkbGetNames retrieves symbolic names for the components of the keyboard
       extension from the X server. The which  parameter  specifies  the  name
       components  to  be  updated  in  the  xkb parameter, and is the bitwise
       inclusive OR of the valid names mask bits defined in Table 1.

                                                        physical symbols,
                                                        types, and

       XkbAllNamesMask          (0x3fff)   Xkb->names   all name components

       If the names field of the keyboard description xkb is NULL, XkbGetNames
       allocates  and initializes the names component of the keyboard descrip-
       tion before obtaining the values specified  by  which.   If  the  names
       field  of  xkb is not NULL, XkbGetNames obtains the values specified by
       which and copies them into the keyboard description Xkb.

       If the map component of the xkb parameter is NULL, XkbGetNames does not
       retrieve  type  or  shift  level  names, even if XkbKeyTypeNamesMask or
       XkbKTLevelNamesMask are set in which.

       XkbGetNames can return Success, or BadAlloc, BadLength,  BadMatch,  and
       BadImplementation errors.

       To free symbolic names, use XkbFreeNames.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadImplementation
                      Invalid reply from server

       BadLength      The  length  of a request is shorter or longer than that
                      required to minimally contain the arguments

       BadMatch       A compatible version of Xkb was  not  available  in  the
                      server or an argument has correct type and range, but is
                      otherwise invalid
