lis_vector_duplicate(3)

✨ lis_vector_duplicate(3) — from the Lis Library Functions era 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this little cutie is the manual page for lis_vector_duplicate(3) and she is so much simpler than she sounds 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

lis_vector_duplicate — she duplicates the vector, that's the whole job, no cap 👑

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include "lis.h"

LIS_INT lis_vector_duplicate(void *vin, LIS_VECTOR *vout);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically you hand her a vector and she makes you a brand new one, vout, that's got all the same information as vin. Same info, new vector, main character energy ✨

---

💜 INPUT 💜

• vin — the source vector, aka the one you're copying the info from 💅

---

💖 OUTPUT 💖

• vout — the destination vector, aka the fresh new baby that just got allocated 🍼

---

⭐ EXIT STATUS ⭐

Here's what she hands back when she's done:

• 0 — the process is normally terminated, everything slayed, no notes ✅
• unspecified — an error occurred 😭 like it just went wrong, unspecified, mysterious, we don't know the details

---

👑 NOTE 👑

🚨 okay this part matters, do not skip it bestie 🚨

lis_vector_duplicate does not copy the values. She only allocates the memory. That's it. Just the memory. 🫠

So if you actually want the values copied too, you gotta call lis_vector_copy after this function. Duplicate first, copy second. That's the order, periodt. 💅

and that's the whole page, bestie!! 🎀 this one's from the Lis crew, man page dated 6 Sep 2012, and the header up top said lis_vector_duplicate(3) which we already covered, and the footer signed off with lis_vector_duplicate(3) one more time because she loves a dramatic exit 💖 mwah, go allocate some memory responsibly ✨🧚
