rc_dict_addval(3)

✨ rc_dict_addval — the dictionary glow-up function ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about rc_dict_addval from the radcli Radius client library manual, section 3 (that's the library-functions section, iykyk 💅). This is the one you call when you want to slide a new value into a dictionary and you're feeling cute about it.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <radcli/radcli.h>

DICT_VALUE * rc_dict_addval(
    rc_handle   *rh,
    char const  *attrstr,
    char const  *namestr,
    uint32_t     value
);

like, she takes four things and hands you back a pointer. iconic behaviour honestly 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Add value to dictionary. That's the whole mission, that's the assignment, she ate and left no crumbs.

🚨 no cap, important: she does not check if such value already exists. Not even a little. Not even a vibe check. So if you add the same thing twice, that's on you, bestie — she's not your babysitter, she's a function. 😭

---

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• rh — a handle to configuration. your whole setup lives in here, she needs it to know which dictionary we're talking about.
• attrstr — attribute name. the attribute, as a string, literally.
• namestr — name. yep. that's the name. the name of the value, fr fr.
• value — attribute value. a uint32_t, so bring a real number, not a vibe.

---

👑 RETURN VALUE 👑

• the added value on success 🎉
• NULL on failure 💀

that's it, that's the deal. check your pointer, always, periodt.

(and yes, rc_dict_addval(3) links to herself. she's self-referential, she's main character energy, we support her 🌈)

okay that's the whole page, no notes. this one came from radcli and it's dated 2023-01-29 — so yeah, she's been serving this exact energy since then and she's not changing for anybody. stay hydrated, check your return values, and don't add duplicates unless you want chaos 💜✨
