TT_PATTERN_XCONTEXT_ADD(3)

🎀 tt_pattern_xcontext_add 🎀

okay so welcome to the library call page for tt_pattern_xcontext_add, bestie — she adds an XDR-interpreted byte-array value to this pattern's named context, and honestly that's the whole mission. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

tt_pattern_xcontext_add — add an XDR-interpreted byte-array value to this pattern's named context. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       #include &<Tt/tt_c.h>
       Tt_status tt_pattern_xcontext_add(
       Tt_pattern p,
       const char *slotname,
       xdrproc_t xdr_proc,
       void *value);

This is the include and the function signature, copied exactly so you can drop it in and go. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So tt_pattern_xcontext_add adds an XDR-interpreted byte-array value to the values in this pattern's named context. That's the vibe. ✨

Here's the cast of arguments, no cap:

• p — the opaque handle for the pattern involved in this operation. 🫶
• slotname — describes the context for this pattern. 🏷️
• xdr_proc — points to the XDR procedure to be used to serialize the data pointed to by value. 🧚
• value — the data to be serialized. 📦

🌸 RETURN VALUE 🌸

Upon successful completion, tt_pattern_xcontext_add returns the status of the operation as one of these Tt_status values:

• TT_OK — the operation completed successfully. ✅
• TT_ERR_UNIMP — the ToolTalk function called is not implemented. 😭
• 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. 🙈
• TT_ERR_SLOTNAME — the specified slotname is syntactically invalid. 🚫
• TT_ERR_XDR — the XDR procedure failed on the given data, or evaluated to a zero-length expression. 🔥

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

• Tt/tt_c.h - Tttt_c(5)

That's the reference, bestie — go peek if you need the surrounding ToolTalk lore. 🦋

Sign-off time: the footer is literally tt_pattern_xcontext_add(library call) — that's the source/version-ish footer line, and there's no separate date in the original, so we're not inventing one, periodt. 💅✨
