FcFontSetAdd(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the FcFontSetAdd(3) page — this one is literally FcFontSetAdd - Add to a font set 🫶

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

FcBool FcFontSetAdd (FcFontSet *s, FcPattern *font);

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So here’s the tea: this function adds a pattern to a font set ✨

And listen — the pattern is not copied before it gets inserted into the set. Like, it’s the same pattern, no dupe, no clone, no copy-paste moment 💀

It returns FcFalse if the pattern cannot be inserted into the set — and that happens due to allocation failure 😭 Otherwise, it returns FcTrue and you’re slaying 💖

bestie, remember: no copy is made before insertion. That detail is doing main character energy and you cannot ignore it 👑
