## NAME

xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control -

## SYNOPSIS

**#include \<xcb/xproto.h\>**

### Request function

xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control\_cookie\_t **xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control**(xcb\_connection\_t \**conn*,

### Reply datastructure

```

typedef struct xcb_get_keyboard_control_reply_t {
    uint8_t  response_type;
    uint8_t  global_auto_repeat;
    uint16_t sequence;
    uint32_t length;
    uint32_t led_mask;
    uint8_t  key_click_percent;
    uint8_t  bell_percent;
    uint16_t bell_pitch;
    uint16_t bell_duration;
    uint8_t  pad0[2];
    uint8_t  auto_repeats[32];
} xcb_get_keyboard_control_reply_t;
```

### Reply function

xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control\_reply\_t \***xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control\_reply**(xcb\_connection\_t \**conn*, xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control\_cookie\_t *cookie*, xcb\_generic\_error\_t \*\**e*);\

## REQUEST ARGUMENTS

- *conn*

  The XCB connection to X11.

## REPLY FIELDS

- *response\_type*

  The type of this reply, in this case *XCB\_GET\_KEYBOARD\_CONTROL*. This field is also present in the *xcb\_generic\_reply\_t* and can be used to tell replies apart from each other.

- *sequence*

  The sequence number of the last request processed by the X11 server.

- *length*

  The length of the reply, in words (a word is 4 bytes).

- *global\_auto\_repeat*

  One of the following values:

  - *XCB\_AUTO\_REPEAT\_MODE\_OFF*

    TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

  - *XCB\_AUTO\_REPEAT\_MODE\_ON*

    TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

  - *XCB\_AUTO\_REPEAT\_MODE\_DEFAULT*

    TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

  TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

- *led\_mask*

  TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

- *key\_click\_percent*

  TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

- *bell\_percent*

  TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

- *bell\_pitch*

  TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

- *bell\_duration*

  TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

- *auto\_repeats*

  TODO: NOT YET DOCUMENTED.

## DESCRIPTION

## RETURN VALUE

Returns an *xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control\_cookie\_t*. Errors have to be handled when calling the reply function *xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control\_reply*.

If you want to handle errors in the event loop instead, use *xcb\_get\_keyboard\_control\_unchecked*. See **[xcb-requests(3)](/xcb-requests/3.md)** for details.

## ERRORS

This request does never generate any errors.
