✨ xcb_xkb_map_notify_event_t ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the manual page for xcb_xkb_map_notify_event_t, which lives in section 3 of the manual (that's the library-functions girlies 💅). It's part of XCB Events, and it's giving "struct that shows up when the X server has keyboard map tea to spill." Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

xcb_xkb_map_notify_event_t — no description line, bestie. The original page literally just leaves it blank after the dash. It's mysterious. It's giving main character energy with no backstory. 💀

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

First things first, you gotta pull in the header:

#include <xcb/xkb.h>

🦋 Event datastructure 🦋

Here's the whole struct, verbatim, every single field, no cap:

typedef struct xcb_xkb_map_notify_event_t {
    uint8_t         response_type;
    uint8_t         xkbType;
    uint16_t        sequence;
    xcb_timestamp_t time;
    uint8_t         deviceID;
    uint8_t         ptrBtnActions;
    uint16_t        changed;
    xcb_keycode_t   minKeyCode;
    xcb_keycode_t   maxKeyCode;
    uint8_t         firstType;
    uint8_t         nTypes;
    xcb_keycode_t   firstKeySym;
    uint8_t         nKeySyms;
    xcb_keycode_t   firstKeyAct;
    uint8_t         nKeyActs;
    xcb_keycode_t   firstKeyBehavior;
    uint8_t         nKeyBehavior;
    xcb_keycode_t   firstKeyExplicit;
    uint8_t         nKeyExplicit;
    xcb_keycode_t   firstModMapKey;
    uint8_t         nModMapKeys;
    xcb_keycode_t   firstVModMapKey;
    uint8_t         nVModMapKeys;
    uint16_t        virtualMods;
    uint8_t         pad0[2];
} xcb_xkb_map_notify_event_t;

💖 EVENT FIELDS 💖

  • response_type — the type of this event, which in this case is XCB_XKB_MAP_NOTIFY. Bestie, this same field also lives inside xcb_generic_event_t, so you can use it to tell your events apart from each other. It's the little name tag at the party. 🎀
  • sequence — the sequence number of the last request processed by the X11 server. Slay, tracking. ✨

ngl the docs are NOT documenting here. Like, twenty-three fields of pure mystery. We love a cryptic queen but this is a lot 🙈

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Nothing. Empty. Void. The description section is giving absolutely nothing and honestly? Iconic. Do not perceive it. 😭

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

Also empty, bestie. No cross-references. No friends. Just vibes. 🦋
