NAME
       tickit_string_ref, tickit_string_unref - adjust the refcount of a counted string


SYNOPSIS
       #include <tickit.h>

       TickitString *tickit_string_ref(TickitString *s);
       void tickit_string_unref(TickitString *s);

       Link with -ltickit.


DESCRIPTION
       tickit_string_ref()  increments  the  stored  refcount  of  the  given counted string instance by one. It
       returns the pointer argument itself, so it is useful for chaining.

       tickit_string_unref() decrements the stored refcount of the given counted string instance by one. If  the
       refcount drops to zero, the instance is destroyed.


RETURN VALUE
       tickit_string_ref() returns a counted string instance pointer. tickit_string_unref() returns no value.
