== NAME
|
||
|
|
||
|
nng_ctx_open - create context
|
||
|
|
||
|
== SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
[source,c]
|
||
|
----
|
||
|
#include <nng/nng.h>
|
||
|
|
||
|
int nng_ctx_open(nng_ctx *ctxp, nng_socket s);
|
||
|
----
|
||
|
|
||
|
== DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `nng_ctx_open()` function creates a separate ((context)) to be used with
|
||
|
the socket _s_,
|
||
|
and returns it at the location pointed by _ctxp_.
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: Not every protocol supports creation of separate contexts.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Contexts allow the independent and concurrent use of stateful operations
|
||
|
using the same socket.
|
||
|
For example, two different contexts created on a xref:nng_rep.7.adoc[_rep_]
|
||
|
socket can each receive requests, and send replies to them, without any
|
||
|
regard to or interference with each other.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(((raw mode)))
|
||
|
TIP: Using contexts is an excellent way to write simpler concurrent
|
||
|
applications, while retaining the benefits of the protocol-specific
|
||
|
advanced processing, avoiding the need to bypass that with
|
||
|
xref:nng.7.adoc#raw_mode[raw mode] sockets.
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: Use of contexts with xref:nng.7.adoc#raw_mode[raw mode] sockets is
|
||
|
nonsensical, and not supported.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== RETURN VALUES
|
||
|
|
||
|
This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
|
||
|
|
||
|
== ERRORS
|
||
|
|
||
|
[horizontal]
|
||
|
`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient memory is available.
|
||
|
`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: The protocol does not support separate contexts, or the socket was opened in raw mode.
