parse_property(9)

✨ NAME ✨

Welcome to the Kernel API Manual, bestie! This page is all about parse_property(9) — parse a rule property given a token string. 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int parse_property (char *t , struct ipe_rule *r );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• t — supplies the token string to be parsed. That’s the little string getting its moment. ✨
• r — supplies the ipe_rule the parsed property will be associated with. It’s literally the rule getting the property attached. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so real talk: this function parses and associates a property with an IPE rule based on a token string. That’s the whole arc, no cap. It takes the token string and links the parsed property to the IPE rule. 💅

💅 RETURN 💅

• 0 — Success ✨ iconic, we love to see it.
• -ENOMEM — Out of memory (OOM) 😭 not the vibe.
• -EBADMSG — The supplied token cannot be parsed 💀 it said “I don’t know her.”
