FcConfigFileInfoIterGet(3)

💖 FcConfigFileInfoIterGet(3) — fontconfig manual 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the fontconfig manual page for FcConfigFileInfoIterGet(3) ✨ this function is lowkey a little info-unlocker for configuration files, and we’re gonna get you comfy with it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

FcConfigFileInfoIterGet — obtain the configuration file information 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

FcBool FcConfigFileInfoIterGet (FcConfig *config, FcConfigFileInfoIter *iter, FcChar8 **name, FcChar8 **description, FcBool *enabled);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this function gives you three things for the iter, which points to the current configuration file information: the filename, the description, and the flag saying whether it’s enabled or not 💅 those come out through name, description, and enabled. and if the iterator is invalid, FcFalse is returned — periodt.

🚨 real talk, bestie: this function isn't MT-safe. FcConfigReference must be called before using FcConfigFileInfoIterInit, and then FcConfigDestroy when the relevant values are no longer referenced. that’s the order, no cap, don’t skip it 😭

⭐ SINCE ⭐

version 2.12.91 🫶
