💖 gnutls_sign_get_name 💖

okay bestie, so this one lives in the gnutls manual, section 3, and it's an API function. yeah. an actual function. she's employed. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

const char * gnutls_sign_get_name(gnutls_sign_algorithm_t algorithm);

like, that's the whole vibe. one include, one function, no drama. 🎀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • gnutls_sign_algorithm_t algorithm — bestie this is a sign algorithm. that's it. that's the whole arg. it's giving "one job, done correctly". ✨

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so what does she DO. she takes a gnutls_sign_algorithm_t value and converts it into a string. that's it!! lowkey the most chill function in the whole library. you hand her a sign algorithm, she hands you back the name of it, as text. no cap. 🫶

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

she returns a string that contains the name of the specified sign algorithm. 🎉

or NULL. 😭

yeah. that's the plot twist. always check. always. 🙈

💀 reminder bestie: gnutls_sign_get_name can hand you NULL, and dereferencing NULL is not the main character moment you think it is. check her return value. periodt.
