WildMidi_GetString(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, meet WildMidi_GetString — the function that gets a string from the library. that's it, that's the whole job description ✨

part of the WildMidi Programmer's Manual, no cap.

🎀 LIBRARY 🎀

libWildMidi — that's the one, that's the girl 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <wildmidi_lib.h>

const char *WildMidi_GetString (uint16_t info);

like, look at her. three lines and she's already iconic 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea: this function returns a pointer to a string, and which string you get depends on what you set info to. choose your own adventure, basically 💖

and rn? at this stage in the library's life? WM_GS_VERSION is the only setting for info that actually returns a pointer. and when you use it, you get back a pointer to a string holding the libWildMidi version information 👑

not me checking the docs like… girl, that's the only option. periodt. everything else is a mystery 🙈

🫶 RETURN VALUE 🫶

returns a const char pointer to a string containing the string you requested. that's the whole vibe — pointer in, pointer out, bestie ✨
