💖 shishi_error_clear — the little reset button for Shishi's error vibes 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the shishi_error_clear(3) page from the shishi manual (yes that shishi, the GNU one, hi 👋). this is the part where we wipe the slate clean. no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <shishi.h>

void shishi_error_clear(Shishi * handle);

like… that's it. that's the whole thing. one function, zero return value, maximum peace of mind 🧘‍♀️

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • Shishi * handle — your shishi handle, the one you got from shishi_init(). if you don't have one of these yet, bestie, go get one first, this function is literally nothing without it 🙈

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what does it do?? it clears the internal error description. poof. gone. the error string said its goodbyes 💅

if you wanna know how to read that error string, that's a whole other function — go look at shishi_error(). and if you wanna set it instead of clearing it, you've got two options: shishi_error_set() and shishi_error_printf(). pick your fighter ✨

now real talk: this function is mostly for Shishi's internal use. it's the kind of thing the library calls on itself, lowkey. BUT — and this is the fun part — if you're out here developing an extension of Shishi, it may be useful to support the same error handling infrastructure. so like, if you're building on top of it, matching the vibe is chef's kiss 👑

😭 REPORTING BUGS 😭

found a bug?? don't just scream into the void, tell the actual humans:

they're nice, i promise. fr fr 🫶

ngl this page is tiny but it ate. clearing errors is self-care and self-care is main character energy. periodt. 💅
