💖 gnutls_alert_get_strname 💖

okay bestie, so this one lives in the gnutls manual, and it's literally called gnutls_alert_get_strname — an API function, no cap. it's a tiny little glow-up function that turns an alert number into a name you can actually read with your eyeballs. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

const char * gnutls_alert_get_strname(gnutls_alert_description_t alert);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • gnutls_alert_description_t alert — bestie this is just an alert number. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🍓

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so the way that this works is: you hand it an alert, and it hands you back a string with the name of that alert. it's giving "translate the cryptic number into human words." iconic behaviour honestly. 💅

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

a string that corresponds to the gnutls_alert_description_t value you passed in. yes, a string. the name. that's the whole gift. 🎁

🌈 SINCE 🌈

3.0 — so it's been around since forever, an elder actually. 👑
