TT_OTYPE_OSIG_OP(3)
π
tt_otype_osig_op β the library call page, bestie
okay so real talk, this is the man page for tt_otype_osig_op, a library call from the ToolTalk crew, and it's genuinely so much less scary than it looks. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
tt_otype_osig_op β returns the op name of a notice signature of an otype. that's the whole gig. it's giving "small function, big purpose" π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
#include &<Tt/tt_c.h>
char *tt_otype_osig_op(
const char *otype,
int sig);
yes bestie, that include line has a & in it and no i'm not touching it β copy it exactly as shown, that's the vibe π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so, tt_otype_osig_op returns the op name of the *sig*th notice signature of the otype you hand it. literally just "give me the op name of this signature" and it does. iconic behaviour β¨
- the
otypeargument is the object type involved in this operation. it's the main character here π - the
sigargument is the zero-based index into the notice signatures of thatotype. zero-based, bestie β so the first one is0, not1. don't come for me, that's just how it is π
π₯ RETURN VALUE π₯
upon successful completion (slay), tt_otype_osig_op returns the operation attribute of the specified notice signature.
and because pointers are chaotic, your app can call tt_ptr_error(3) to pull one of these Tt_status values out of the returned pointer:
TT_OKβ the operation completed successfully. we love a happy ending πTT_ERR_NOMPβ thettsession(1)process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it. so nobody's home πTT_ERR_NUMβ the integer value passed was invalid (out of range). you gave it a number it simply could not deal with πTT_ERR_OTYPEβ the specified object type is not the name of an installed object type. that otype is not on the guest list π
π APPLICATION USAGE π
your app should use tt_free(3) to free any data stored in the address returned by the ToolTalk API. yes, actually free it β no leaking memory on my watch, bestie π§

okay that's the page!! and for the sign-off: this was tt_otype_osig_op(library call) β that's the source/version tag and the footer date situation, both living down at the bottom of the original. thanks for coming to my ted talk, mwah πβπ
