TT_MESSAGE_STATUS_STRING_SET(3)

💖 TT_MESSAGE_STATUS_STRING_SET(3) 💖

okay so real talk, this one lives in the library call section of the manual (that's the manual name, bestie, we're in the library call pages) and it's a ToolTalk function that lets you slap a little status string onto a message. it's giving "add a note to your message" energy and honestly? kinda iconic.

---

✨ NAME ✨

tt_message_status_string_set — sets a character string with the status attribute for a message 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <Tt/tt_c.h>
Tt_status tt_message_status_string_set(
Tt_message m,
const char *status_str);

like, you include Tt/tt_c.h, you call the thing, you get a Tt_status back. no cap. 🦋

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

The tt_message_status_string_set function sets status string of the specified message. yes, that's the whole vibe — you've got a message, it wants a status string, you give it one 🫶

The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this operation. opaque meaning you don't peek inside it, you just hold it and pass it along like a good little handle 💅

The status_str argument is the status string to be stored in this message. literally that's the string that goes in. obsessed.

---

🔥 RETURN VALUE 🔥

Upon successful completion, the tt_message_status_string_set function returns the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

• TT_OK — The operation completed successfully. slay!! 🎉
• TT_ERR_NOMP — The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it. 😭 yeah the session daemon peaced out and it's not coming back on its own.
• TT_ERR_POINTER — The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this operation. 💀 wrong kind of pointer, bestie, it's not the object type this function wants.

---

🌈 APPLICATION USAGE 🌈

The status string should be used by the application developer to amplify on, for example, why the application is failing a message. so like... context!! receipts!! tell the people why things went sideways instead of just leaving them on read 🙈✨

okay bye bestie, that's the whole page!! 🧚 this footer situation is a lil shy — it just repeats tt_message_..._string_set(library call) and doesn't give us a date or version stamp to point at, so consider this the cute sign-off instead: same source, same library call manual, no date included, and honestly the footer could never 💅💖
