💅 pskc_get_device_manufacturer — like, the libpskc manual, bestie

okay so real talk, this is page pskc_get_device_manufacturer(3) from libpskc, and it's genuinely so simple you're gonna slay it in like thirty seconds. it's an API function, which sounds intimidating but it literally just reads a string for you. no cap. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

pskc_get_device_manufacturer — API function. that's it, that's the whole name, she's lowkey minimal and we respect it 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <pskc.h>

const char * pskc_get_device_manufacturer(pskc_key_t * key);

yeah. one #include, one function call. iykyk 🦋

🧚 ARGUMENTS 🧚

  • pskc_key_t * key — a pskc_key_t handle, and you get it from pskc_get_keypackage(). that's the whole vibe, that's the source. don't just make one up out of nowhere, fr fr 🙈

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So what does she actually do? She gets the PSKC KeyPackage DeviceInfo Manufacturer value. literally that's the assignment and she ate.

and like, what does that value even mean? it indicates the manufacturer of the device. that's it. it's the "who made this thing" field. main character energy for a string, honestly 👑

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

okay so here's the part where you gotta pay attention, bestie:

  • you get back a constant string — and listen, it must not be deallocated. do not free() it. do not pass go. it's not yours, it's on loan, hands off 😭
  • that string holds the content.
  • or, if it's not set, you get NULL. so like, vibe check your return value before you go dereferencing things, okay? 💀

🔥 REPORTING BUGS 🔥

literally just email them, they're nice about it 🫶
