πŸ’… tt_ptr_error β€” the pointer error macro, bestie

okay so real talk, this is tt_ptr_error from the library calls section, and it's genuinely one of the smallest little icons in the whole ToolTalk lineup. she's a macro, she's a vibe check for your pointers, and honestly? she ate. let's get into it πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

tt_ptr_error β€” pointer error macro 🫢

like, that's literally her whole job. pointer. error. macro. no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <Tt/tt_c.h>
Tt_status tt_ptr_error(
pointer);

that's it, that's the whole entrance. pull in <Tt/tt_c.h> and you're in business ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so the tt_ptr_error macro expands to this, exactly:

tt_pointer_error((void *)(p))

iconic behavior, honestly. that's the whole expansion, no secret extras hiding in there.

the pointer argument is the opaque pointer or character pointer that you want checked πŸ‘‘ like, hand her your pointer and she'll tell you what's up with it.

ngl the whole point is the checking β€” she's not out here doing anything else, she's just your pointer's vibe check πŸ’…

πŸ”₯ RETURN VALUE πŸ”₯

upon successful completion (slay), tt_ptr_error returns the status of the operation as one of these Tt_status values β€” memorize these, they're the whole personality:

  • TT_OK β€” the operation completed successfully. periodt. πŸ’–
  • TT_ERR_NOMP β€” the ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it 😭 like girl is gone and she is not coming back on her own.
  • TT_ERR_POINTER β€” the pointer you passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this operation πŸ’€ wrong type bestie, wrong type.
