mysql_get_proto_info(3)

✨ mysql_get_proto_info ✨

okay so bestie, this is a page from the MariaDB Connector/C manual, and it's about asking your connection "hey girl, what protocol version are we speaking rn?" 💅 That's literally it. Short page, iconic energy, no notes.

🌸 NAME 🌸

mysql_get_proto_info — returns the protocol version number 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <mysql.h>

unsigned int mysql_get_proto_info(MYSQL * mysql);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

It returns the protocol version number for the specified connection. That's the whole vibe. One call, one number, slay. ✨

🫶 PARAMETER 🫶

• mysql — a connection identifier, which was previously allocated by mysql_init(3) and connected by mysql_real_connect(3). Like, you can't just roll up with a random pointer, bestie, it's gotta be a real connection that went through mysql_init(3) first and then got connected with mysql_real_connect(3). 🌈

👑 NOTES 👑

Important tea: MariaDB Connector/C doesn't support protocol version 9 and prior. So if you were hoping for the ancient stuff, it's giving no. 💀

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

The protocol version number in use. Simple. Gorgeous. Ate. 🍓

That's the whole page, fr fr. Written up under Version 3.4 of the manual, and the footer's just mysql_get_proto_info(3) hanging out down there — same as the header, because symmetry is main character energy. 💅✨🦋
