bl_fasta_set_desc_len(3)    Library Functions Manual	bl_fasta_set_desc_len(3)

LIBRARY
     #include <biolibc/fasta.h>
     -lbiolibc -lxtend

SYNOPSIS
     int     bl_fasta_set_desc_len(
     bl_fasta_t *bl_fasta_ptr,
     size_t new_desc_len
     )

ARGUMENTS
     bl_fasta_ptr    Pointer to the structure to set
     new_desc_len    The new value for desc_len

DESCRIPTION
     Mutator  for  desc_len member in a bl_fasta_t structure.  Use this function
     to set desc_len in a bl_fasta_t object  from  non-member  functions.   This
     function  performs a direct assignment for scalar or pointer structure mem-
     bers.  If desc_len is a pointer, data previously pointed to should be freed
     before calling this function to avoid memory leaks.

RETURN VALUES
     BL_FASTA_DATA_OK  if   the   new	value	is   acceptable   and	assigned
     BL_FASTA_DATA_OUT_OF_RANGE otherwise

EXAMPLES
     bl_fasta_t      bl_fasta;
     size_t	     new_desc_len;

     if ( bl_fasta_set_desc_len(&bl_fasta, new_desc_len)
	     == BL_FASTA_DATA_OK )
     {
     }
