VHDLABLVECTOR(3)

okay bestie, welcome to VHDLABLVECTOR(3) — the ABL FUNCTIONS manual page that’s about to hand you a vectorized name’s index and name. it’s giving useful, lowkey niche, and we’re obsessed. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

vhdlablvector — gives the index and the name of a vectorized name. literally that’s the whole job. ✨

🌈 ORIGIN 🌈

This software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universit� Pierre and Marie CURIE, in Paris, France.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here’s the exact C summoning circle, bestie:

       #include "abl101.h"
       char ∗vhdlablvector( Name, Index )
         char ∗Name;
         long ∗Index;

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• Name — a vectorized name. that’s the thing you’re asking about. 💖
• Index — a pointer to long. it’s where the index gets handed back. 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

vhdlablvector searches the index of a vectorized name, and the vector’s name. that’s the mission: find the index, grab the vector’s name, slay. no cap.

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

If Name is a vectorized name, vhdlablvector returns the vector’s name using namealloc, and its index through Index — the page’s exact wording is “throw Index”, so yes, we’re keeping that relic. Otherwise, it returns a null pointer. no vectorized name, no name for you, bestie. 💀

🔥 EXAMPLE 🔥

here’s the exact example, character for character. copy the block as-is, bestie — we do not “fix” the printf line, we respect the man page. 🫶

       #include "abl101.h"
          long Index;
          char ∗Name;
          Name = vhdlablvector( "vec 2", &Index );
          /* displays Name:vec, Index:2  */
          printf( "Name:%s, Index:%d0, Name, Index );
