Description

I tried to test the fast api but i could not get it to work, i think. How do you detect that you are actually using the fast api? I tried to use printf but got no output.

What also was not helping was the fact that existing fast api implementation where not like the documented example. So there was no knowledge transfer possible.

Looking forward in clarifying following:

  1. Why doea the example differ from existing examples?
  2. Is it possible to test if we are calling the fast api, like using printf or does it not work, because stdout is not set properly?

Research direction

Start by comparing the documented Fast API example with the existing Fast API implementations referenced by the issue. Determine how users can verify that the Fast API is being called and whether printf output is expected when stdout is configured differently. Done means the documentation explains the discrepancy and provides a reliable verification method.
