πŸ’– al_ustr_append_cstr β€” Allegro 5 API πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the al_ustr_append_cstr(3alleg5) page, straight outta the Allegro reference manual. this one is short and sweet and honestly kind of iconic for it. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

al_ustr_append_cstr β€” it's an Allegro 5 API function, periodt. that's the whole name section. she's brief, she's confident, she ate πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the vibe check on how you actually call her:

#include <allegro5/allegro.h>

bool al_ustr_append_cstr(ALLEGRO_USTR *us, const char *s)

so you gotta pull in <allegro5/allegro.h> first (no skipping that, fr fr), and then you've got a bool coming back at you and two lil arguments to feed her. keep those names exactly as-is, bestie, they're literally us and s, character for character. πŸ”₯


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the tea: al_ustr_append_cstr takes that C-style string s and appends it to the end of us. that's it. that's the whole job. she glues the C string onto the end of your ALLEGRO_USTR and minds her own business. ✨

and then she tells you how it went:

  • returns true on success πŸŽ€
  • returns false on error 😭

like. she's not subtle. she's not complicated. she shows up, she appends, she reports back. main character energy honestly πŸ‘‘

not me being obsessed with how a function can just do one thing and do it well. lowkey inspirational. πŸ’œ
