cassert(3)

🌸 cassert(3) — the manual page, but make it make sense 🌸

ok so real talk: this one lives in the Library Functions Manual section of your man pages (section 3, the C++ corner of the library, iykyk 💅), and it's filed under the name cassert. That's the whole header situation, we move.

✨ NAME ✨

cassert —

and yes bestie, the description is literally blank in the original. Not me leaving it empty, that's just the vibe the docs gave us 😭 the name is the whole personality here.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

📖 Detailed Description

okay so here's the tea 🍵 — this is a Standard C++ Library file. You should include this file in your programs, rather than any of the *.h implementation files. Like, don't go off-roading into *.h land, fr fr, that's not the main character move 🙈

This is the C++ version of the Standard C Library header assert.h, and its contents are (mostly) the same as that header — but they're all contained in the namespace std, except for names which are defined as macros in C. Little glow-up, same energy ✨

Definition in file cassert.

💜 the cute sign-off 💜

that's it, that's the page 🫶 so this whole thing was shipped by libstdc++, dated 21 Apr 2009, and it answers to the name cassert(3) — iconic, historic, and now you know 💅⭐
