If the names field of the keyboard description xkb is NULL, XkbGetNames allocates and initializes the names component of the keyboard description before obtaining the values specified by which. If the names field of xkb is not NULL, XkbGetNames obtains the values specified by which and copies them into the keyboard description Xkb.
If the map component of the xkb parameter is NULL, XkbGetNames does not retrieve type or shift level names, even if XkbKeyTypeNamesMask or XkbKTLevelNamesMask are set in which. BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadImplementation Invalid reply from server
BadLength The length of a request is shorter or longer than that required to minimally contain the arguments
BadMatch A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has correct type and range, but is otherwise invalid
