## Function Documentation

## pw_split_walk()

const char* pw_split_walk | ( | const char * | str,
|  | const char * | delimiter,
|  | size_t * | len,
|  | const char ** | state
| ) |  |

Split a string based on delimiters.

Parameters

  | str | a string to split
  | delimiter | delimiter characters to split on
  [out] | len | the length of the current string
  [in,out] | state | a state variable

Returns
  a string or NULL when the end is reached

Repeatedly call this function to split str into all substrings delimited by delimiter. state should be set to NULL on the first invocation and passed to the function until NULL is returned.

## pw_split_strv()

char** pw_split_strv | ( | const char * | str,
|  | const char * | delimiter,
|  | int | max_tokens,
|  | int * | n_tokens
| ) |  |

Split a string based on delimiters.

Parameters

  | str | a string to split
  | delimiter | delimiter characters to split on
  | max_tokens | the max number of tokens to split
  [out] | n_tokens | the number of tokens

Returns
  a NULL terminated array of strings that should be freed with pw_free_strv.

## pw_free_strv()

void pw_free_strv | ( | char ** | str | ) |

Free a NULL terminated array of strings.

Parameters

  str | a NULL terminated array of string

Free all the strings in the array and the array

## pw_strip()

char* pw_strip | ( | char * | str,
|  | const char * | whitespace
| ) |  |

Strip all whitespace before and after a string.

Parameters

  str | a string to strip
  whitespace | characters to strip

Returns
  the stripped part of str

Strip whitespace before and after str. str will be modified.

## pw_getrandom()

ssize_t pw_getrandom | ( | void * | buf,
|  | size_t | buflen,
|  | unsigned int | flags
| ) |  |

Fill a buffer with random data.

Parameters

  buf | a buffer to fill
  buflen | the number of bytes to fill
  flags | optional flags

Returns
  the number of bytes filled

Fill buf with buflen random bytes.
