If the members rem and data aren't supposed to be accessed by the user, I suggest creating a function to access them, or modify xcb_str_next to return a pointer to xcb_str_t for the current element, then have it iterate to the next element. > If the members of the struct xcb_str_iterator_t are supposed to be accessed by the user, then there is no reason to add said function. > ________________________________ > De: Xcb <xcb-bounces@lists.freedesktop.org> em nome de Uli Schlachter <psychon@znc.in> > Enviado: domingo, 7 de março de 2021 05:35 > Para: Lucas <lucasvalentim@outlook.com.br>; xcb@lists.freedesktop.org <xcb@lists.freedesktop.org> > Assunto: Re: [Xcb] Are there any naming conventions for XCB? > > Hi, > > Am 14.02.21 um 23:37 schrieb Lucas: >> I want to introduce one function (another one might be needed) to return >> a xcb_str_t pointer from an iterator because I could not find a function >> to do just that, but I have noticed a pattern in the names of the >> function, hence the question.
