Reward Address List

typedef struct cardano_reward_address_list_t cardano_reward_address_list_t

Represents a list of reward address.


cardano_error_t cardano_reward_address_list_new(cardano_reward_address_list_t **reward_address_list)

Creates and initializes a new instance of a reward_address_list.

This function allocates and initializes a new instance of cardano_reward_address_list_t. It returns an error code to indicate success or failure of the operation.

Usage Example:

cardano_reward_address_list_t* reward_address_list = NULL;

// Attempt to create a new reward_address_list
cardano_error_t result = cardano_reward_address_list_new(&reward_address_list);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Use the reward_address_list

  // Once done, ensure to clean up and release the reward_address_list
  cardano_reward_address_list_unref(&reward_address_list);
}

Parameters:
cardano_reward_address_list_t **reward_address_list

[out] On successful initialization, this will point to a newly created cardano_reward_address_list_t object. This object represents a “strong reference” to the reward_address_list, meaning that it is fully initialized and ready for use. The caller is responsible for managing the lifecycle of this object. Specifically, once the reward_address_list is no longer needed, the caller must release it by calling cardano_reward_address_list_unref.

Returns:

CARDANO_SUCCESS if the reward_address_list was successfully created, or an appropriate error code indicating the failure reason.


size_t cardano_reward_address_list_get_length(const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list)

Retrieves the length of a reward address list.

This function retrieves the number of elements in the provided cardano_reward_address_list_t object.

Usage Example:

cardano_reward_address_list_t* reward_address_list = cardano_reward_address_list_new();

// Populate reward_address_list with elements

size_t length = cardano_reward_address_list_get_length(reward_address_list);
printf("Length of the reward_address_list: %zu\n", length);

// Clean up the reward_address_list object once done
cardano_reward_address_list_unref(&reward_address_list);

Parameters:
const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list

[in] A constant pointer to the cardano_reward_address_list_t object whose length is to be retrieved.

Returns:

The number of elements in the reward_address_list. Return 0 if the reward_address_list is NULL.


cardano_error_t cardano_reward_address_list_get(const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list, size_t index, cardano_reward_address_t **element)

Retrieves an element from a reward address list by index.

This function retrieves the element at the specified index from the provided cardano_reward_address_list_t object and stores it in the output parameter.

Usage Example:

cardano_reward_address_list_t* reward_address_list = cardano_reward_address_list_new();

// Populate reward_address_list with elements

cardano_reward_address_t* element = NULL;
cardano_error_t result = cardano_reward_address_list_get(reward_address_list, 2, &element);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Use the retrieved element
  // Remember to unreference the element once done if it's no longer needed
  cardano_reward_address_unref(&element);
}

// Clean up the reward_address_list object once done
cardano_reward_address_list_unref(&reward_address_list);

Parameters:
const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list

[in] A constant pointer to the cardano_reward_address_list_t object from which the element is to be retrieved.

size_t index

[in] The index of the element to retrieve from the reward address list. Indexing starts at 0.

cardano_reward_address_t **element

[out] Pointer to a variable where the retrieved element will be stored. This variable will point to the retrieved cardano_reward_address_t object. The caller is responsible for managing the lifecycle of the element by calling cardano_reward_address_unref when it is no longer needed.

Returns:

CARDANO_SUCCESS if the element was successfully retrieved, or an appropriate error code indicating the failure reason.


cardano_error_t cardano_reward_address_list_add(cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list, cardano_reward_address_t *element)

Adds an element to a reward address list.

This function adds the specified element to the end of the provided cardano_reward_address_list_t object.

Usage Example:

cardano_reward_address_list_t* reward_address_list = cardano_reward_address_list_new();

// Create and initialize a new reward address element
cardano_reward_address_t* element = { ... };

// Add the element to the reward_address_list
cardano_error_t result = cardano_reward_address_list_add(reward_address_list, element);

if (result == CARDANO_SUCCESS)
{
  // Element added successfully
}

// Clean up the reward_address_list object once done
cardano_reward_address_list_unref(&reward_address_list);

Parameters:
cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list

[in] A constant pointer to the cardano_reward_address_list_t object to which the element is to be added.

cardano_reward_address_t *element

[in] Pointer to the cardano_reward_address_t object that is to be added to the reward_address_list. The element will be referenced by the reward_address_list after addition.

Returns:

CARDANO_SUCCESS if the element was successfully added to the reward_address_list, or an appropriate error code indicating the failure reason.


void cardano_reward_address_list_unref(cardano_reward_address_list_t **reward_address_list)

Decrements the reference count of a reward_address_list object.

This function is responsible for managing the lifecycle of a cardano_reward_address_list_t object by decreasing its reference count. When the reference count reaches zero, the reward_address_list is finalized; its associated resources are released, and its memory is deallocated.

Usage Example:

cardano_reward_address_list_t* reward_address_list = cardano_reward_address_list_new();

// Perform operations with the reward_address_list...

cardano_reward_address_list_unref(&reward_address_list);
// At this point, reward_address_list is NULL and cannot be used.

Note

After calling cardano_reward_address_list_unref, the pointer to the cardano_reward_address_list_t object will be set to NULL to prevent its reuse.

Parameters:
cardano_reward_address_list_t **reward_address_list

[inout] A pointer to the pointer of the reward_address_list object. This double indirection allows the function to set the caller’s pointer to NULL, avoiding dangling pointer issues after the object has been freed.


void cardano_reward_address_list_ref(cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list)

Increases the reference count of the cardano_reward_address_list_t object.

This function is used to manually increment the reference count of a reward_address_list object, indicating that another part of the code has taken ownership of it. This ensures the object remains allocated and valid until all owners have released their reference by calling cardano_reward_address_list_unref.

Usage Example:

// Assuming reward_address_list is a previously created reward_address_list object

cardano_reward_address_list_ref(reward_address_list);

// Now reward_address_list can be safely used elsewhere without worrying about premature deallocation

Note

Always ensure that for every call to cardano_reward_address_list_ref there is a corresponding call to cardano_reward_address_list_unref to prevent memory leaks.

Parameters:
cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list

A pointer to the reward_address_list object whose reference count is to be incremented.


size_t cardano_reward_address_list_refcount(const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list)

Retrieves the current reference count of the cardano_reward_address_list_t object.

This function returns the number of active references to a reward_address_list object. It’s useful for debugging purposes or managing the lifecycle of the object in complex scenarios.

Usage Example:

// Assuming reward_address_list is a previously created reward_address_list object

size_t ref_count = cardano_reward_address_list_refcount(reward_address_list);

printf("Reference count: %zu\n", ref_count);

Warning

This function does not account for transitive references. A transitive reference occurs when an object holds a reference to another object, rather than directly to the cardano_reward_address_list_t. As such, the reported count may not fully represent the total number of conceptual references in cases where such transitive relationships exist.

Parameters:
const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list

A pointer to the reward_address_list object whose reference count is queried. The object must not be NULL.

Returns:

The number of active references to the specified reward_address_list object. If the object is properly managed (i.e., every cardano_reward_address_list_ref call is matched with a cardano_reward_address_list_unref call), this count should reach zero right before the object is deallocated.


void cardano_reward_address_list_set_last_error(cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list, const char *message)

Sets the last error message for a given reward_address_list object.

Records an error message in the reward_address_list’s last_error buffer, overwriting any existing message. This is useful for storing descriptive error information that can be later retrieved. The message is truncated if it exceeds the buffer’s capacity.

Note

The error message is limited to 1023 characters, including the null terminator, due to the fixed size of the last_error buffer.

Parameters:
cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list

[in] A pointer to the cardano_reward_address_list_t instance whose last error message is to be set. If NULL, the function does nothing.

const char *message

[in] A null-terminated string containing the error message. If NULL, the reward_address_list’s last_error is set to an empty string, indicating no error.


const char *cardano_reward_address_list_get_last_error(const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list)

Retrieves the last error message recorded for a specific reward_address_list.

This function returns a pointer to the null-terminated string containing the last error message set by cardano_reward_address_list_set_last_error for the given reward_address_list. If no error message has been set, or if the last_error buffer was explicitly cleared, an empty string is returned, indicating no error.

Note

The returned string points to internal storage within the object and must not be modified by the caller. The string remains valid until the next call to cardano_reward_address_list_set_last_error for the same reward_address_list, or until the reward_address_list is deallocated.

Parameters:
const cardano_reward_address_list_t *reward_address_list

[in] A pointer to the cardano_reward_address_list_t instance whose last error message is to be retrieved. If the reward_address_list is NULL, the function returns a generic error message indicating the null reward_address_list.

Returns:

A pointer to a null-terminated string containing the last error message for the specified reward_address_list. If the reward_address_list is NULL, “Object is NULL.” is returned to indicate the error.
