.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP
.I \- xkb
keyboard description containing server map to free
.TP
.I \- which
mask identifying components of map to free
.TP
.I \- free_all
True => free all server map components and server itself
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
The 
.I XkbFreeServerMap 
function frees the specified components of server map in the XkbDescRec 
structure specified by the 
.I xkb 
parameter and sets the corresponding structure component values to NULL. The
.I which parameter specifies a combination of the server map masks and is a 
bitwise inclusive OR 
of the masks listed in Table 1. If 
.I free_all 
is True, 
.I which 
is ignored and 
.I XkbFreeServerMap 
frees every non-NULL structure component in the server map, frees the 
XkbServerMapRec structure 
referenced by the 
.I server 
member of the 
.I xkb 
parameter, and sets the 
.I server 
member to NULL.

.LP
The complete description of an Xkb keyboard is given by an XkbDescRec. The 
component 
structures in the XkbDescRec represent the major Xkb components.

.nf
typedef struct {
   struct _XDisplay * display;      /\(** connection to X server */
   unsigned short     flags;        /\(** private to Xkb, do not modify */
   unsigned short     device_spec;  /\(** device of interest */
   KeyCode            min_key_code; /\(** minimum keycode for device */
   KeyCode            max_key_code; /\(** maximum keycode for device */
   XkbControlsPtr     ctrls;        /\(** controls */
   XkbServerMapPtr    server;       /\(** server keymap */
   XkbClientMapPtr    map;          /\(** client keymap */
   XkbIndicatorPtr    indicators;   /\(** indicator map */
   XkbNamesPtr        names;        /\(** names for all components */
   XkbCompatMapPtr    compat;       /\(** compatibility map */
   XkbGeometryPtr     geom;         /\(** physical geometry of keyboard */
} XkbDescRec, *XkbDescPtr;

.fi
The 
.I display 
field points to an X display structure. The 
.I flags field is private to the library: modifying 
.I flags 
may yield unpredictable results. The 
.I device_spec 
field specifies the device identifier of the keyboard input device, or 
XkbUseCoreKeyboard, which specifies the core keyboard device. The 
.I min_key_code
and 
.I max_key_code 
fields specify the least and greatest keycode that can be returned by the 
keyboard. 

Each structure component has a corresponding mask bit that is used in function 
calls to 
indicate that the structure should be manipulated in some manner, such as 
allocating it 
or freeing it. These masks and their relationships to the fields in the 
XkbDescRec are 
shown in Table 2.

The Xkb server map contains the information the server needs to interpret key 
events and is of 
type XkbServerMapRec:

.nf
\&#define XkbNumVirtualMods          16

typedef struct {                    /\(** Server Map */
    unsigned short    num_acts;     /\(** # of occupied entries in acts */
    unsigned short    size_acts;    /\(** # of entries in acts */
    XkbAction *       acts;         /\(** linear 2d tables of key actions, 1 per keycode */
