== NAME
|
|
|
|
nn_send - send data (compatible API)
|
|
|
|
== SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
[source, c]
|
|
----
|
|
#include <nanomsg/nn.h>
|
|
|
|
int nn_send(int sock, const void *data, size_t size, int flags)
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
== DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The `nn_send()` function creates a message containing _data_ (of size _size_),
|
|
and sends using the socket _sock_.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This function is provided for API
|
|
xref:nng_compat.3compat.adoc[compatibility] with legacy _libnanomsg_.
|
|
Consider using the relevant xref:libnng.3.adoc[modern API] instead.
|
|
|
|
If _size_ has the special value `NN_MSG`, then a zero-copy operation
|
|
is performed.
|
|
In this case, _data_ points not to the message content itself, but instead
|
|
is a pointer to the pointer, an extra level of pointer indirection.
|
|
The message must have been previously allocated by
|
|
xref:nn_allocmsg.3compat.adoc[`nn_allocmsg()`] or
|
|
xref:nn_recvmsg.3compat.adoc[`nn_recvmsg()`]`, using the same `NN_MSG` size.
|
|
In this case, the ownership of the message shall remain with
|
|
the caller, unless the function returns 0, indicating that the
|
|
function has taken responsibility for delivering or disposing of the
|
|
message.
|
|
|
|
The _flags_ field may contain the special flag `NN_DONTWAIT`.
|
|
In this case, if the socket is unable to accept more data for sending,
|
|
the operation shall not block, but instead will fail with the error `EAGAIN`.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The send operation is performed asynchronously, and may not have
|
|
completed before this function returns control to the caller.
|
|
|
|
== RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
This function returns the number of bytes sent on success, and -1 on error.
|
|
|
|
== ERRORS
|
|
|
|
[horizontal]
|
|
`EAGAIN`:: The operation would block.
|
|
`EBADF`:: The socket _sock_ is not open.
|
|
`EFSM`:: The socket cannot send in this state.
|
|
`ENOTSUP`:: This protocol cannot send.
|
|
`ETIMEDOUT`:: Operation timed out.
