FcNameConstant(3)

πŸ’… FcNameConstant(3) β€” the fontconfig glow-up you didn't know you needed

okay so bestie, welcome to FcNameConstant(3) β€” yes that's the manual name, we're being official today πŸŽ€ this is the little lookup helper that tells you whether a symbolic constant is, like, a thing in fontconfig, and hands you its value if it is. no cap, it's short and sweet.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <fontconfig/fontconfig.h>

FcBool FcNameConstant (FcChar8 *string, int *result);

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the vibe: FcNameConstant returns whether a symbolic constant with the name string is registered πŸ‘‘ and if it is present, it drops the value of that constant into result. that's it. that's the whole function. iconic, minimal, ate πŸ’…

🫢 quick reminder: the return value is the yes/no (FcBool), and result is where the actual constant value lands if present β€” so like, pay attention to both, bestie.

✨ that's the whole page, you're literally a fontconfig expert now ✨
