✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, quick vibe check 💅 — this is gsasl_hash_length, which is literally just an API function from the gsasl manual (that's the manual name, mwah 😘). that's the whole name section. slay.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <gsasl.h>

size_t gsasl_hash_length(Gsasl_hash hash);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • Gsasl_hash hash — lowkey just a Gsasl_hash element, bestie. like, for example? GSASL_HASH_SHA256. that kind of thing. no cap. ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea 🍓: this function returns the digest output size for the hash function you hand it — that's the hash argument, bestie. so like... it's giving "how many bytes is this hash gonna spit out".

for example (and this is the iconic part): gsasl_hash_length(GSASL_HASH_SHA256) returns GSASL_HASH_SHA256_SIZE, which is 32. thirty-two!! the way that math is mathing 🔥

🦋 RETURNS 🦋

the size of the Gsasl_hash element you supplied. that's it, that's the whole return. main character energy honestly 👑

⭐ SINCE ⭐
