👑 NAME 💅

okay so bestie, gather round, because this is shishi_kdcrep_read — an API function from the shishi manual, living its best life over in section 3 of the docs. it reads stuff. it slays. periodt. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <shishi.h>

int shishi_kdcrep_read(Shishi * handle, FILE * fh, Shishi_asn1 * kdcrep);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • Shishi * handle — the shishi handle, bestie. it's the one you got handed to you when you called shishi_init(), so like, don't just make one up out of thin air, okay? 🫶
  • FILE * fh — a file handle that's open for reading. that's the vibe. it reads. that's its whole thing. 📖
  • Shishi_asn1 * kdcrep — an output variable, and she comes pre-loaded with a freshly allocated KDC-REP. main character energy, honestly. 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what this does is: it reads a DER encoded KDC-REP straight out of a file, and then it populates the variable you gave it. that's it. that's the whole plot. lowkey iconic, highkey useful. 🧚

ngl, "populate given variable" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in one sentence, but that's genuinely the entire description, so we're keeping it 100. 💀

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

it returns SHISHI_OK — but only if everything went well, i.e. iff successful. anything else and, well... not successful. no cap. 🔥
