💅 pskc_set_device_startdate — like, the manual page, bestie

okay so this is a libpskc function and honestly? it's giving "small but mighty" ✨ it lives in section 3 of the manual, and it's here to help you stamp a start date onto a device. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

pskc_set_device_startdate — the API function that sets the device start date. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <pskc.h>

void pskc_set_device_startdate(pskc_key_t * key, const struct tm *
startdate);

no cap, that's the whole signature — void return, two arguments, in and out 🎀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • pskc_key_t * key — a pskc_key_t handle, and you get it from pskc_get_keypackage(). that's your main character right there 👑
  • const struct tm * startdate — a pointer to a tm struct holding the device starting date you wanna set. yes, a pointer, not the struct itself. we're being efficient 💅

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So what does it actually do? It sets the PSKC KeyPackage DeviceInfo StartDate. 📅

And what does that element even mean? It denotes the start date of a device — like the one on a payment card, used when issue numbers are not printed on cards. iykyk, it's the fallback when there's no printed issue number to go off of 🏦💳

literally just: you hand it a key handle, you hand it a date, it does the thing. slay.

⭐ SINCE ⭐

2.2.0 — so it's been around a minute, lowkey iconic ✨
