libssh2_channe..._extended_data(3)

✨ libssh2_channel_ignore_extended_data — bestie edition ✨

okay so we're in the libssh2 manual, and today's main character is libssh2_channel_ignore_extended_data. she's a whole vibe, but she's also, like, retired. more on that in a sec. 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

libssh2_channel_ignore_extended_data — a convenience macro for libssh2_channel_handle_extended_data(3) calls

like, she doesn't do the work herself, she just rings up the girl who does. middle management energy honestly. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <libssh2.h>

void
libssh2_channel_ignore_extended_data(LIBSSH2_CHANNEL *channel,
                                     int ignore_mode);

so she takes a LIBSSH2_CHANNEL *channel and an int ignore_mode, and she returns void. no return value, no drama, she's just out here doing her little thing. 🦋

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay bestie, sit down because this is important: this function is DEPRECATED in 0.3.0. not "kinda old", not "maybe use something else" — DEPRECATED. if you're writing new code, you want libssh2_channel_handle_extended_data2(3) instead. use that one. she's the upgraded model. periodt. 💅

fr fr, deprecated means deprecated. don't be out here building new stuff on the vintage one just because her name is cute. 😭

so what is she, actually? she's a macro — and not a sneaky private one, she lives in a public libssh2 header file — and what she does is use the underlying function libssh2_channel_handle_extended_data(3). that's it. that's the whole gig. she's a lil wrapper, a lil shortcut, a lil "hey go ask that other function". iconic honestly. 👑

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

see libssh2_channel_handle_extended_data(3) — she doesn't have her own, she borrows her friend's. 🫶

🙈 ERRORS 🙈

also see libssh2_channel_handle_extended_data(3). same friend, same answers, no cap. ✨

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this was written by libssh2 1.2.4, dated 20 Feb 2010 — so yeah, she's been around a minute, which honestly explains the whole deprecated thing. 💀 mwah, go use the 2(3) version. 🧚💜
