FcCacheNumSubdir(3)

✨ FcCacheNumSubdir ✨

bestie we're in section 3 of the fontconfig manual today and honestly? this one's a little cutie. it's FcCacheNumSubdir, and yes the whole name is a mouthful but it does exactly what it says on the tin πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

FcCacheNumSubdir β€” returns the number of subdirectories in a cache, that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

okay so first you gotta pull in the header like the good little C dev you are:

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

and then the actual function, one line, no drama:

int FcCacheNumSubdir (const FcCache *cache);

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so real talk: you hand this function a cache β€” a const FcCache *, to be exact, she's not about to mutate your stuff, respect β€” and she comes right back at you with the total number of subdirectories in the cache. that's the entire lore. no cap πŸ”₯

like, the total total. not some of them, not the ones you feel like counting. the whole squad of subdirectories. and it hands you back an int, so go forth and count, queen πŸ‘‘

ngl there's genuinely nothing else on this page. she's short, she's sweet, she ate and left no crumbs πŸ’€
