💖 xbc_node_get_data(9) 💖

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual and this page is lowkey a little icon. it's giving "tiny function, very specific job" energy, and honestly? slay.

🌸 NAME 🌸

xbc_node_get_data — get the data of XBC node. periodt.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const char * xbc_node_get_data (struct xbc_node *node );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• node — an XBC node. that's the whole argument, no cap 🫶

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so here's the vibe: xbc_node_get_data() returns the data of node. that data is always a null terminated string — literally always, iykyk. 💖

and if the node has invalid data? it warns and returns NULL. yes, like a little kernel "bestie no" moment 😭.
