# Function mark_as_initialized_from_private_initializer

Module: `noir_aztec::macros::functions::initialization_utils`

```rust
pub fn mark_as_initialized_from_private_initializer(
    context: &mut PrivateContext,
    emit_public_init_nullifier: bool,
)
```

Emits the private initialization nullifier and, if relevant, enqueues the emission of the public one.

If the contract has public functions that perform initialization checks (i.e. that don't have `#[noinitcheck]`), this also enqueues a call to the auto-generated `__emit_public_init_nullifier` function so the public initialization nullifier is emitted in public. Called by private [`initializer`](/aztec-nr-api/v6.0.0/noir_aztec/macros/functions/fn.initializer.md) macros.
