✨ hdf_obj_value(3) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the util/neo_hdf.h cinematic universe 💖 this lil guy lives in the ClearSilver headers and it is genuinely one of the most chill functions in the whole family. no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

hdf_obj_value — returns the value of a node. that's it. that's the whole job. iconic behavior honestly 👑

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <util/neo_hdf.h>

char* hdf_obj_value (HDF *hdf);

look at her. one include, one function, zero drama ✨

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • hdf -> the hdf dataset node. yes queen, hand her the node 🫶

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so hdf_obj_value is an accessor function for a dataset node, and what it does is hand you back the value of the node. if the node has no value at all? you get NULL. no value, no problem, she's just built that way 😭

now here's the part you NEED to remember, bestie, and i mean it: this is not a copy of the value. like, at all. the node retains ownership of the value. so don't you dare go freeing it or thinking it's yours — it's not, it never was, the node is the main character here and you're just borrowing the pointer 🙈

lowkey the vibe check: you get a peek, not a present. no take-backs, no duplicates, the node keeps custody. periodt 💀

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

None

(yeah. that's what the page says. we don't ask questions, we just report the facts 💖)
