💖 icetGetSingleImageStrategyName — bestie edition 💖

okay so this is a page from the IceT Reference (manual section 3), and the function we're hyping up is icetGetSingleImageStrategyName. yes it's a mouthful. yes it's iconic. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

icetGetSingleImageStrategyName — retrieve single image sub-strategy name.

like, it goes and fetches the name of your current single image sub-strategy. that's the whole job. she's focused. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <IceT.h>

const char *icetGetSingleImageStrategyName(   void   );

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

icetGetSingleImageStrategyName retrieves a human-readable name for the current single image sub-strategy.

that's it bestie. no arguments, no setup, no drama — it just tells you what strategy is currently doing its thing. 🌈

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

Returns a short, null terminated string identifying the single image strategy currently in effect.

super helpful for printing out debugging or diagnostic statements — like when you're staring at your terminal at 2am going "what is even happening rn" and this lil string is the only thing that makes sense. 😭

💜 ERRORS 💜

None. not a single one. she simply does not miss. ✨

⭐ WARNINGS ⭐

None. no caution tape needed, we're thriving. 🧚

🍓 BUGS 🍓

None known. (iykyk, "known" is doing a lot of work there, but that's what the page says and we respect it. 👑)

💅 NOTES 💅

okay this part actually matters, listen up:

The string returned does not contain the identifier used in a C program. For example, if the current single image strategy is ICET_SINGLE_IMAGE_STRATEGY_BSWAP, icetGetSingleImageStrategyName returns ``Binary Swap,'' not ICET_SINGLE_IMAGE_STRATEGY_BSWAP.

so like — pretty name for humans, screaming-caps constant for compilers. don't mix them up or you will be confused and I will be sad. 🙈
