🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, welcome to ecoli_assert(3) from Libecoli — yes, the manual name is ecoli_assert, and this whole page is the group chat for Assert 💅

ecoli_assert — Assert — Assertion helpers.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

🎀 Macros

#define ec_assert_print(expr,  args...)   __ec_assert_print(expr, #expr,
    args)
#define EC_CHECK_ARG(cond,  ret,  err)

🌸 Detailed Description 🌸

Assertion helpers. Helpers to check at runtime if a condition is true, or otherwise either abort (exit program) or return an error. That's the whole plot, no cap 🦋

🦋 Macro Definition Documentation 🦋

💅 ec_assert_print — Abort if the condition is false

Full macro definition, bestie:

#define ec_assert_print(expr, args...)   __ec_assert_print(expr, #expr,
           args)

Abort if the condition is false.

If expr is false, this macro will print an error message to standard error and terminates the program by calling abort(3) — yes, full drama, the program is leaving the chat 😭🔥

Parameters

  • expr — The expression to be checked.
  • args — The format string, optionally followed by other arguments.

💜 EC_CHECK_ARG — Check a condition or return

Full macro definition:

#define EC_CHECK_ARG(cond, ret, err)

Value:

do {                                                                                               if (!(cond)) {                                                                                 errno = err;                                                                           return ret;                                                                        }                                                                                      } while (0)

Check a condition or return.

If the condition is true, do nothing. If it is false, set errno and return the specified value. It's giving guard-clause energy, lowkey iconic 🎀

Parameters

  • cond — The condition to test.
  • ret — The value to return.
  • err — The errno to set.
