💖 EC_CONFIG_LIST_NEXT(3) — the Libecoli Programmer's Manual, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let's talk about ec_config_list_next from Libecoli. this little function is your girl for walking a config list one step at a time, no cap 🚶♀️✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

ec_config_list_next — get the next element in a list. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

first things first, you gotta bring the header in like a little gift:

#include <ecoli/config.h>

and here's the signature, looking all main character:

struct ec_config * ec_config_list_next(
    struct ec_config   *list,    /* The list configuration being iterated. */
    struct ec_config   *config   /* The current configuration element. */
);

so you hand it the list you're iterating over (that's the list configuration being iterated, periodt) and the config that is your current configuration element, and it gives you the glow-up to the next one 💅

🎀 STRUCTURES 🎀

this is the structure that's storing the configuration data, iconic behavior honestly:

struct ec_config {
    union ec_config::@165033305204240054252215261010262276266146032272  @204272232073016241350260013126061051223010235320;
};

yes the union name is doing all that, don't ask, just copy it exactly bestie 😭 copy it character for character or the compiler will simply not understand you

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

you get the next configuration element back 🫶 … or NULL if there is no more element. like, the list is done, it's over, nothing left, go home 🌈

fr fr: NULL here is not an error, it's just the end of the line. that's your signal to stop looping.
