💖 mconv_list_codings — bestie's guide to listing all the codings 💖

okay so this is a page from the m17n Library manual (m17n, as in multilingualization, iykyk). The star of the show is mconv_list_codings, and she's here to hand you the entire guest list of coding systems. Let's get into it. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

mconv_list_codings — the one who names every coding system 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int mconv_list_codings (MSymbol ** symbols)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay bestie, listen. This function is literally the girl who has the group chat roster memorized. The mconv_list_codings() function makes an array of symbols representing a coding system, stores the pointer to that array in a place pointed to by symbols, and returns the length of the array. 📋✨

So like — you hand her a spot to put the pointer (symbols), she fills it in with the array, and she tells you how many entries are in it via the return value. That's the whole vibe. No cap. 💅

heads up: symbols is an MSymbol ** — you're giving her the address of a pointer, and she's writing the array pointer into it. Yes she's that kind of girl. 👑

Respect the elders, periodt.
