Hello.
I'm a bit confused.
I'm trying to get keyboard layout from xscreensaver-lock and see
unexpected results.
I have a function which returns current layout (see below), which works
fine when compiled standalone. But when I compile it as part of
xscreensaver-lock , I suddenly find out that it sees two XKB groups
'English (US)' instead of 'English (US)' and 'Russian'.
So I see that we use group number 0 or 1, but their names are masked.
Do you have any suggestions where xscreensaver-lock can manage to do it? :)
static gchar*
getGroup()
{
XkbStateRec state;
Display *dpy;
XkbDescRec desc[1];
char *names[XkbNumKbdGroups];
int i;
gchar *s1 = NULL;
dpy = gdk_x11_get_default_xdisplay();
memset(desc, 0, sizeof(desc));
desc->device_spec = XkbUseCoreKbd;
if (XkbGetControls(dpy, XkbGroupsWrapMask, desc) == Success) {
if (XkbGetNames(dpy, XkbGroupNamesMask, desc) == Success) {
if (XkbGetState(dpy, XkbUseCoreKbd, &state) == Success) {
XGetAtomNames(dpy, desc->names->groups,
desc->ctrls->num_groups, names);
for(i=0; i< desc->ctrls->num_groups; i++){
fprintf(stderr, names[i]);
}
if (names[state.group]) {
if(strlen(names[state.group]) > 2) {
names[state.group][2]='\0';
}
s1 = g_ascii_strdown (names[state.group], -1);
fprintf(stderr, "Got group %d %s\n", state.group, s1);
fflush(stderr);
}
}
XkbFreeNames(desc, XkbGroupNamesMask, True);
}
XkbFreeControls(desc, XkbGroupsWrapMask, True);
}
return s1;
}
