hxg_sizeof(9)
π hxg_sizeof(9) β the Kernel API Manual glow-up β¨
okay bestie, so this is hxg_sizeof, and it lives in section 9 of the Kernel API Manual (yes, the kernel one, we're literally in the big leagues now π). it's a tiny macro with main character energy and honestly? it ate.
β¨ NAME β¨
hxg_sizeof β queries the size of the object or type, but make it HXG units π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
hxg_sizeof (T );
that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap. π¦
π ARGUMENTS π
Tβ the object or the type, whichever one you're trying to size up, bestie. that's your input, that's your girl.
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea β β hxg_sizeof will force a compilation error if the actual size is not aligned to the HXG unit (u32). like, it's not gonna politely warn you, it's not gonna slide into your DMs with a suggestion. it's gonna straight-up refuse to compile. π
think of it as your compiler being a protective bestie who catches your bad alignment before you ship it. lowkey iconic, highkey necessary. the way it just says "no β€οΈ" at build time? obsessed. π₯
π RETURN π
the size, in dwords (u32). slay. π
