NAME
XkbFreeDeviceInfo − Free an XkbDeviceInfoRec structure
SYNOPSIS
|
void XkbFreeDeviceInfo |
(XkbDeviceInfoPtr device_info, unsigned int |
which, Bool free_all);
ARGUMENTS
− device_info
pointer to XkbDeviceInfoRec in which to free items
− which
mask of components of device_info to free
− free_all
True => free everything, including device_info
DESCRIPTION
If free_all is True, the XkbFreeDeviceInfo frees all components of device_info and the XkbDeviceInfoRec structure pointed to by device_info itself. If free_all is False, the value of which determines which subcomponents are freed. which is an inclusive OR of one or more of the values from Table 1. If which contains XkbXI_ButtonActionsMask, all button actions associated with device_info are freed, device_info->btn_acts is set to NULL, and device_info->num_btns is set to zero. If which contains all bits in XkbXI_IndicatorsMask, all XkbDeviceLedInfoRec structures associated with device_info are freed, device_info->leds is set to NULL, and device_info->sz_leds and device_info->num_leds are set to zero. If which contains XkbXI_IndicatorMapsMask, all indicator maps associated with device_info are cleared, but the number of LEDs and the leds structures themselves is preserved. If which contains XkbXI_IndicatorNamesMask, all indicator names associated with device_info are cleared, but the number of LEDs and the leds structures themselves is preserved. If which contains XkbXI_IndicatorStateMask, the indicator state associated with the device_info leds are set to zeros but the number of LEDs and the leds structures themselves is preserved.
