std::error_category::name(3)

🎀 NAME 🎀

Okay so this is the std::error_category::name(3) page, folded in right near the top like a little header sticker — and it comes from the C++ Standard Libary manual. Yes bestie, “Libary” is spelled exactly like that up top, and we are leaving it alone. 💅

std::error_category::name — std::error_category::name. That’s the name. It’s literally the same thing twice, and honestly? Iconic minimalism. 🦋

✨ Synopsis ✨

Here’s the synopsis, exactly as it’s giving:

virtual const char* name() const noexcept = 0;  (since C++11)

Returns a pointer to a null-terminated byte string that specifies the name of the error category. So yeah — that’s the whole move: pointer to a null-terminated byte string, and that string specifies the name of the error category. Slay. ✨

🐚 Parameters 🐚

• (none) — there are no parameters. Not a one. Zero. The parameter list is empty and it’s giving minimalism. 💀

💖 Return value 💖

Null-terminated byte string specifying the name of the error category. That’s it — a null-terminated byte string, and it specifies the name of the error category. Concise, cute, periodt. 💖
