Function Documentation

◆ icalparameter_as_ical_string()

char * icalparameter_as_ical_string ( icalparameter * parameter )

Converts icalparameter into a string representation.

Parameters

parameter The icalparameter to convert

Returns: A string representing the parameter according to RFC5445/RFC6868.

See also: icalparameter_as_ical_string_r()

Error handling: If there is any error, the method returns NULL. Furthermore, if parameter is NULL, it also sets icalerrno to ICAL_BADARG_ERROR. If it doesn't recognize the kind of the parameter, it sets icalerrno it ICAL_BADARG_ERROR. If the parameter is otherwise malformed, it sets icalerrno to ICAL_MALFORMEDDATA_ERROR.

Ownership: Strings returned by this method are owned by libical, they must not be freed and they may be reclaimed with the next call into the library. A version of this function, which returns strings that are not owned by libical, is icalparameter_as_ical_string_r().

Usage: icalparameter *param = icalparameter_new_from_string("ROLE=CHAIR");

if(param) {

printf("%s\n", icalparameter_as_ical_string(param));

}

icalparameter_free(param);

◆ icalparameter_as_ical_string_r()

char * icalparameter_as_ical_string_r ( icalparameter * parameter )

Converts icalparameter into a string representation according to RFC5445/RFC6868.

Parameters

parameter The icalparameter to convert

Returns: A string representing the parameter

See also: icalparameter_as_ical_string()

Error handling: If there is any error, the method returns NULL. Furthermore, if parameter is NULL, it also sets icalerrno to ICAL_BADARG_ERROR. If it doesn't recognize the kind of the parameter, it sets icalerrno to ICAL_BADARG_ERROR. If the parameter is otherwise malformed, it sets icalerrno to ICAL_MALFORMEDDATA_ERROR.

Ownership: Strings returned by this method are owned by the caller, thus they need to be manually icalmemory_free_buffer()d after use. A version of this function which returns strings that do not need to be freed manually is icalparameter_as_ical_string().

Usage: icalparameter *param = icalparameter_new_from_string("ROLE=CHAIR");

if(param) {

char *str = icalparameter_as_ical_string(param);

printf("%s\n", str);

icalmemory_free_buffer(str);

}

icalparameter_free(param);

icalmemory_free_buffer

Definition at line 198 of file icalparameter.c.

◆ icalparameter_clone()

icalparameter * icalparameter_clone ( const icalparameter * old )

Creates new icalparameter as a clone of the given one.

Parameters

old	The existing, non-NULL parameter to clone.

Returns: An icalparameter that is a clone of the given one.

Error handling: If old is NULL, it returns NULL and sets icalerrno to ICAL_BADARG_ERROR. If there was an internal error cloning the data, it returns NULL without reporting any error in icalerrno.

Ownership: Objects created by this method are owned by the caller and must be released with the icalparameter_free() method.

Usage: // create an icalparameter

icalparameter *param = icalparameter_new_from_string("ROLE=CHAIR");

// clone the parameter

icalparameter *clone = icalparameter_clone(param);

if(clone) {

// use clone ...

}
