TT_PATTERN_IARG_ADD(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to tt_pattern_iarg_add — it’s a library call, and it’s literally giving “add a new integer argument to a pattern” energy ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include &<Tt/tt_c.h>
Tt_status tt_pattern_iarg_add(
Tt_pattern m,
Tt_mode n,
const char *vtype,
int value);

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

The tt_pattern_iarg_add function adds a new argument to a pattern and sets the value to a given integer. No cap, that’s the whole main character job 💅

🎀 bestie warning: add all arguments before the pattern is registered with the ToolTalk service. Do not wait until after registration, fr fr.

The m argument is the opaque handle for the pattern involved in this operation.

The n argument specifies who (sender, handler, observers) writes and reads a message argument. The following modes are defined:

• TT_IN — the argument is written by the sender and read by the handler and any observers.
• TT_OUT — the argument is written by the handler and read by the sender and any reply observers.
• TT_INOUT — the argument is written by the sender and the handler and read by all.

The vtype argument describes the type of argument data being added. NULL matches any value.

The value argument is the value to be added.

🌸 RETURN VALUE 🌸

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

• TT_OK — the operation completed successfully. slay ✅
• TT_ERR_MODE — the specified Tt_mode is invalid.
• TT_ERR_NOMP — the ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.
• TT_ERR_POINTER — the pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this operation.

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

• Tt/tt_c.h - Tttt_c(5), tt_pattern_register(3).
