Typedef Documentation

mode_default_getter_fn

typedef const void *(* mode_default_getter_fn) (asciichat_mode_t mode)

Mode-aware default value getter function type.

Returns the default value for an option based on the current mode. Used for options that have different defaults per mode (e.g., log-file, port, websocket-port).

Parameters

mode	The mode to get the default for

Returns

Pointer to the default value for this mode (must remain valid)
