💖 flexiblas_p...il_backends(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the FlexiBLAS library manual (the section 3 kind, for library calls, iykyk) and it's literally so short and so sweet. sit down, hydrate, let's go ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

flexiblas_print_avail_backends — prints the available FlexiBLAS backends to a file.

like. that's the whole job. she prints backends. to a file. iconic behavior honestly 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <flexiblas/flexiblas_api.h>

void flexiblas_print_avail_backends(FILE *fp);

and then, the little step everyone forgets:

Link with -lflexiblas.

no cap, if you don't link with -lflexiblas she is simply not gonna show up. she's not ghosting you on purpose, you just didn't invite her 💅

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea ☕ flexiblas_print_avail_backends prints the list of currently available FlexiBLAS backends to the file that fp points at. that's it. that's the function.

and yes, you can absolutely pass stdout as the file, because stdout is a file, bestie, the standard output one, and she's valid here. so if you just want the backend list screaming into your terminal, stdout is the move 🌈

---

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

None. she returns nothing. no value, no little int, no success code, nada. she just does the thing and leaves. main character energy, honestly 👑

---

🌟 ERRORS 🌟

No errors occur. that's right, zero. none. the vibe check is passed, always. 🫶

---

🐛 REPORTING BUGS 🐛

the current info about the developers, plus how to report bugs, lives on the FlexiBLAS homepage. go look, she's right there:
