✨ vf_get_object_type ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the vf_get_object_type(3) page 💖 this one lives in the Library Functions Manual and honestly? it's giving tiny but mighty 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

vf_get_object_type — literally just vf_get_object_type(), that's the whole vibe 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <../vformat/vf_iface.h>

extern const char *vf_get_object_type(VF_OBJECT_T *p_object);

so you pull in that header and boom, the function is yours ✨

🫶 PARAMETERS 🫶

  • VF_OBJECT_T *p_object — the object you want to locate the type of 👀 like, hand it the thing and it tells you what the thing is.

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea ☕ this function returns the type string that identifies the vformat object you pointed at. it's the string that comes after the 'BEGIN' mark — so think 'VCARD' or 'VNOTE' etc. 🎀 no cap, that's the whole job. it's the lil name tag of the object, the "hi my name is" sticker, the vibe check in string form 🌈

⭐ RETURNS ⭐

Ptr to string. that's it bestie, a pointer to a string 🔥

heads up: it's a pointer, not a copy, so don't go freeing it or messing with it, mwah 💀
