== NAME
nng_socket_id - return numeric socket identifier
== SYNOPSIS
[source, c]
----
#include <nng/nng.h>
int nng_socket_id(nng_socket s);
----
== DESCRIPTION
The `nng_socket_id()` function returns a positive identifier for the socket _s_,
if it is valid.
Otherwise it returns `-1`.
NOTE: A socket is considered valid if it was ever opened with a protocol
constructor, such as the xref:nng_req_open.3.adoc[`nng_req0_open()`] function.
Sockets that are allocated on the stack or statically should be
initialized with the macro
xref:nng_socket.5.adoc#NNG_SOCKET_INITIALIZER[`NNG_SOCKET_INITIALIZER`]
to ensure that they cannot be confused with a valid socket before they are opened.
== RETURN VALUES
This function returns the positive value for the socket identifier, or
`-1` if the socket is invalid.
== ERRORS
None.
