FUNCTION"

NAME
       XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads  -  Allocate  doodads  that are
       specific to a section

SYNOPSIS
       Status XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads ( section, num_needed )
             XkbSectionPtr section;
             int num_needed;

ARGUMENTS
       - section
              section for which doodads should be allocated

       - num_needed
              number of new doodads required

DESCRIPTION
       Xkb provides a number of functions to  allocate  and  free
       subcomponents  of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions
       to create or modify keyboard geometries.  Note that  these
       functions  merely  allocate  space for the new element(s),
       and it is up to you to fill in the  values  explicitly  in
       your  code.  These  allocation functions increase sz_* but
       never touch num_* (unless there is an allocation  failure,
       in  which  case  they  reset both sz_* and num_* to zero).
       These functions return Success if they  succeed,  BadAlloc
       if  they  are not able to allocate space, or BadValue if a
       parameter is not as expected.

       XkbAllocGeomSectionDoodads  allocates  num_needed  doodads
       and adds them to the specified section.  No initialization
       of the doodads is done.

       To free geometry doodads, use XkbFreeGeomDoodads.

DIAGNOSTICS
       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue       An argument is out of range
