gsasl_client_application_data_set(3)

✨ gsasl_client_application_data_set(3) ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because we're reading a page from the gsasl manual — section 3, the library-functions girlies — and honestly? she's short, she's sweet, and she's deprecated 😭. let's get into it 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

gsasl_client_application_data_set — literally just an API function, no cap 💖

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <gsasl.h>

void gsasl_client_application_data_set(Gsasl_session * sctx, void *
application_data);

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• Gsasl_session * sctx — your libgsasl client handle, bestie. the main character of the operation 🫶
• void * application_data — an opaque pointer to whatever application-specific data you feel like tucking in there. opaque means we don't peek, it's your business, periodt 🙈

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so the way this works is: you store your application-specific data right inside the libgsasl client handle. that's it. that's the whole vibe ✨

and then later — say, inside a callback, when you're deep in the sauce — you can get it back by calling gsasl_client_application_data_get(). iconic little get/set duo, iykyk 🌈

the whole point is that it lets your app keep state between the main program and the callback, so you're not out here passing things around by hand like it's 2009. lowkey useful, highkey deprecated (more on that below, bestie 😭).

---

💀 DEPRECATED 💀

not me finding out this is deprecated 😭 — use gsasl_callback_hook_set() or gsasl_session_hook_set() instead. fr fr, go use the shiny ones.
