XHPSetKeyboardMapping, XHPRefreshKeyboardMapping - set/refresh the
keyboard mapping
SYNOPSIS

KEYBOARD_ID kbd_id;
int force_read;
XHPRefreshKeyboardMapping(event_map)
XMappingEvent *event_map;
XHPSetKbdMapInit(display, kbd_id, force_read, status_in_out)
Display *display;
KEYBOARD_ID kbd_id;
int force_read;
XComposeStatus *status_in_out;
DESCRIPTIONXHPSetKeyboardMapping allows an application to emulate other keyboards.
It does this by replacing the key map associated with display. The
keyboard to be emulated is specified by kbd_id.
The routines described on this man page are provided for backwards
compatibility only; they will be discontinued in a future release of
HP-UX. XHPSetKeyboardMapping and XHPSetKbdMapInit can only manipulate
the keymaps of HP keyboards connected via the HIL interface. The
system cannot distinguish between an HP DIN keyboard and DIN keyboards
from another source, and hence cannot safely remap these keyboards.
XHPSetKeyboardMapping reads the key map from the file
/etc/X11/XHPKeymaps . However, if the keyboard specified with kbd_id
is the same as the physical keyboard recognized by the server as the
input device, XHPSetKeyboardMapping requests the key map directly from
the server. In this way, any changes to the key map (such as with
XChangeKeyboardMapping) are preserved. This functionality can be
overridden by setting force_read to a non-NULL value; if the value of
force_read is non-NULL, XHPSetKeyboardMapping will always obtain the
key map from the file /etc/X11/XHPKeymaps .
XHPSetKeyboardMapping fails if kbd_id is an unrecognized value or if it
cannot open the key map file; the display's copy of the key map is not
modified.
If the server's keyboard is a non-HP keyboard or is connected to the
workstation by an interface other than HIL, XHPSetKeyboardMapping
returns an error code and does not modify the key map.
XHPSetKbdMapInit is a macro defined in XHPlib.h. It is intended for
clients using XHPGetEurasianCvt and will perform the necessary
initialization and cleanup for that routine, as well as setting the key
map for display.
The following values for kbd_id are define in <X11/HXPlib.h>:
KB_US_English specifies an HP46021A US ASCII keyboard
KB_Canada_French specifies an HP46021AC Canadian French keyboard
KB_German specifies an HP46021AD German keyboard
KB_Euro_Spanish specifies an HP46021AE European Spanish keyboard
KB_French specifies an HP46021AF French keyboard
KB_Dutch specifies an HP46021AH Dutch keyboard
KB_Katakana specifies an HP46021AJ Katakana keyboard
KB_Canada_English specifies an HP46021AL Canadian English keyboard
KB_Latin_Spanish specifies an HP46021AM Latin American Spanish
keyboard
KB_Norwegian specifies an HP46021AN Norwegian keyboard
KB_Swiss_German2 specifies an HP46021AP Swiss German keyboard
KB_Swiss_German specifies an HP46020 Swiss German keyboard
KB_Swiss_French2 specifies an HP46021AQ Swiss French keyboard
KB_Swiss_French specifies an HP46020 Swiss French keyboard
KB_Swedish specifies an HP46021AS Swedish keyboard
KB_UK_English specifies an HP46021AU UK English keyboard
KB_Belgian specifies an HP46021AW Belgian keyboard
KB_Finnish specifies an HP46021AX Finnish keyboard
KB_Danish specifies an HP46021AY Danish keyboard
KB_Italian specifies an HP46021AZ Italian keyboard
KB_T_Chinese specifies an HP46021AW#ZAA Traditional Chinese
keyboard
KB_Korean specifies an HP46021AW#ZAB Korean keyboard
KB_S_Chinese specifies an HP46021AW#ZAC Simplified Chinese
keyboard
KB_Japanese specifies an HP46021AW#ZAL Japanese keyboard
XHPRefreshKeyboardMapping refreshes display's copy of the key map and
modifier information. It facilitates handling MappingNotify events
when using XHPSetKeyboardMapping with the force_read argument set to
NULL (i.e. when the key map for the keyboard is read from the server
and not from the XHPKeymaps file).
If the key map has been read from XHPKeymaps, changes to the server's
key map are irrelevant; MappingNotify events should be ignored when
using XHPSetKeyboardMapping with force_read set to a non-NULL value.
RETURN VALUEXHPSetKeyboardMapping returns zero if it succeeds, otherwise it returns
one of the following values, defined in <X11/HXPlib.h>:
XHPKB_NOKEYFILE The file /etc/X11/XHPKeymaps does not exist
or could not be opened.
XHPKB_BADMAGIC Either libxHP11.a or /etc/X11/XHPKeymaps is
not the latest version.
XHPKB_BADKBID The kbd_id argument is set to an improper
value.
XHPKB_NONHPINPUTDEV The keyboard attached to the server is not
an HP keyboard. The key map requested was
not loaded.
