✨ AUPARSE_GOTO_FIELD_NUM(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in the Linux Audit API corner of the universe and it's literally the "take me to that exact field" button πŸ’… it's auparse_goto_field_num and no cap, it does exactly what it says on the tin.


🌸 NAME 🌸

auparse_goto_field_num β€” move field cursor to specific field 🎯


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

#include <auparse.h>

int auparse_goto_field_num(const auparse_state_t *au,unsignedint"num);"

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so like. auparse_goto_field_num will move the internal library cursors to point to a specific field number in the current record. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 🫢

fields within the same record are numbered starting from 0 β€” zero-indexed girlies rise up, we love to see it. ✨

and ngl? this is generally not needed. like, most of the time you're fine without it. BUT. there are some cases where one may want precise control over the exact field being looked at, and that's when you pull this bad boy out. main character energy only when required, periodt. πŸ‘‘


πŸ”₯ RETURN VALUE πŸ”₯

Returns 0 on error or 1 for success. that's it. 0 = πŸ’€, 1 = πŸŽ€ slay.
