I have read Gdk forum link which says that getting num lock state api is implemented since version 3.0. But I am using version 2.4 and I cannot update to version 3.0 as I need to support lower Linux version. Here is the discussion link:

SO, is there any other way to get the num lock state using internal Linux command?

I have checked the hard ware key code. Whenever num lock is on and pressed the number key at num pad i compare the hard ware key code which is universally constant to all manufacturer. Hence, I don’t need to use ioctl.h header.
