dpy

connection to the X server

opcode_rtrn

backfilled with the major extension opcode

event_rtrn

backfilled with the extension base event code

backfilled with the extension base error code

major_in_out

compile time lib major version in, server major version out

minor_in_out

compile time lib min version in, server minor version out

Call XkbQueryExtension to check for the presence and compatibility of the  extension in the server and to initialize the extension. Because of potential  version mismatches, you cannot use the generic extension mechanism functions  ( XQueryExtension and XInitExtension ) for checking for the presence of, and  initializing the Xkb extension.
 You must call XkbQueryExtension or XkbOpenDisplay before using any other Xkb  library interfaces, unless such usage is explicitly allowed in the interface  description in this document. The exceptions are: XkbIgnoreExtension, XkbLibraryVersion, and a handful of audible-bell functions. You should not use  any other Xkb functions if the extension is not present or is uninitialized. In  general, calls to Xkb library functions made prior to initializing the Xkb  extension cause BadAccess protocol errors.

XkbQueryExtension both determines whether a compatible Xkb extension is present  in the X server and initializes the extension when it is present.

The XkbQueryExtension function determines whether a compatible version of the X  Keyboard Extension is present in the server. If a compatible extension is  present, XkbQueryExtension returns True; otherwise, it returns False.

If a compatible version of Xkb is present, XkbQueryExtension initializes the  extension. It backfills the major opcode for the keyboard extension in opcode_rtrn, the base event code in event_rtrn, the base error code in error_rtrn, and the major and minor version numbers of the extension in major_in_out and minor_in_out. The major opcode is reported in the req_major fields of some Xkb events. For a discussion of the base event code.

True

The XkbQueryExtension function returns True if it determines a compatible version of the X  Keyboard Extension is present in the server.

False

The XkbQueryExtension function returns False if it determines a compatible version of the X  Keyboard Extension is not present in the server.
