🎀 pskc_strerror_name(3) — NAME 🎀

okay so bestie, this is the pskc_strerror_name(3) page from the libpskc manual, and it's an API function. It's giving tiny-but-mighty helper energy, fr fr. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the whole thing, no cap:

#include <pskc.h>

const char * pskc_strerror_name(int err);

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

  • int err — error code, a pskc_rc value.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this function converts a return code into a human readable string that represents the error code symbol itself. For example, pskc_strerror_name(PSKC_OK) returns the string "PSKC_OK".

This string can be used to output a diagnostic message to the user. slay.

And here's the cute bonus: this function is one of few in the library that can be used without a successful call to pskc_init(). iconic behavior, honestly. 🫶

🌸 RETURN VALUE 🌸

Returns a pointer to a statically allocated string containing a string version of the error code err, or NULL if the error code is not known. so if it doesn't know the code, it's giving NULL, bestie — don't panic.
