πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

DtPrintCopySetupData β€” from the library call manual, bestie β€” copies one DtPrintSetupData structure to another. It’s giving β€œcopy-paste but make it C API,” and honestly? Iconic. 🫢

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include &<Print.h>
DtPrintSetupData* DtPrintCopySetupData(
DtPrintSetupData* target,
const DtPrintSetupData* source);

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here’s the tea: DtPrintCopySetupData copies the DtPrintSetupData structure pointed to by source into the DtPrintSetupData structure pointed to by target.

Elements in target get updated only if they’re different from the corresponding elements in source. No redundant copy energy. πŸ’…

For elements that point to allocated memory, DtPrintCopySetupData allocates new memory for those elements updated in target. Existing elements in target are freed using XtFree. And if you want to free all elements in a DtPrintSetupData structure, you call DtPrintFreeSetupData.

If source or target is NULL, the copy will not be performed.

No cap: NULL on either side means this function just does not do the copy. πŸ›‘

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • target β€” a pointer to the DtPrintSetupData structure to copy to. This is the destination main character. πŸ‘‘
  • source β€” a pointer to the DtPrintSetupData structure to copy from. This is where the data is coming from, iykyk. ✨

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

If DtPrintCopySetupData completes successfully, it returns a pointer to the target structure. If it fails, it returns a NULL pointer. So success = target pointer, fail = NULL, simple as that. ✨

πŸ¦‹ ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES πŸ¦‹

None. Literally none β€” no secret env vars to set, bestie. 🧚

⭐ RESOURCES ⭐

None. Zero resources, zero drama. πŸ’œ

πŸ’Œ ACTIONS/MESSAGES πŸ’Œ

None. It’s not sending messages; it’s just copying. Quiet main character energy. 🀫

πŸ’€ ERRORS/WARNINGS πŸ’€

None. (Yes, really β€” the page says none.) 🫢

πŸ“ EXAMPLES πŸ“

None. No examples here, so no copy-paste demo to obsess over. 😭

πŸŽ€ FILES πŸŽ€

None. No files involved. πŸ¦‹

Okay bestie, that’s the whole vibe check. This page is the DtPrintCopySetupData(library call) manual β€” the footer source/version tag is just DtPrintCopySetupData(library call), and there’s no separate date stamped on it, so here’s your cute sign-off instead: may your target stay valid and your NULL checks be ever in your favor. πŸ’…βœ¨πŸŒ·
