SYNOPSIS

int bl_gff3_set_gene_name_cpy(bl_gff3_t *bl_gff3_ptr, char * new_gene_name, size_t array_size)

ARGUMENTS

bl_gff3_ptr      Pointer to the structure to set
new_gene_name   The new value for gene_name
array_size      Size of the gene_name array.

DESCRIPTION

Mutator for gene_name member in a bl_gff3_t structure. Use this function to set gene_name in a bl_gff3_t variable from non-member functions. This function copies the array pointed to by new_gene_name to ->gene_name.

Note that there is an equivalent macro BL_GFF3_SET_GENE_NAME(), which performs this function with no data verification or function call overhead. Use the macro version to maximize performance where the validity of new_gene_name is guaranteed by other means.

RETURN VALUES

BL_GFF3_DATA_OK if the new value is acceptable and assigned BL_GFF3_DATA_OUT_OF_RANGE otherwise

EXAMPLES

bl_gff3_t        bl_gff;
char *          new_gene_name;
size_t          array_size;
if ( bl_gff3_set_gene_name_cpy(&bl_gff, new_gene_name, array_size) == BL_GFF3_DATA_OK )
{
}
