== DESCRIPTION
The `nng_stream_dialer_set()` functions are used to configure options for the
xref:nng_stream.5.adoc[byte stream dialer] _d_.
The actual options that may be configured in this way vary, and are
specified by _opt_.
A number of them are documented in
xref:nng_options.5.adoc[nng_options(5)].
Additionally some transport-specific and protocol-specific options are
documented with the transports and protocols themselves.
=== Forms
The details of the type, size, and semantics of the option will depend
on the actual option, and will be documented with the option itself.
`nng_stream_dialer_set()`::
This function is untyped, and can be used to configure any arbitrary data.
The _val_ pointer addresses the data to copy, and _size_ is the
size of the objected located at _val_.
+
TIP: It may be easier to use one of the typed forms of this function.
`nng_stream_dialer_set_bool()`::
This function is for options which take a Boolean (`bool`).
`nng_stream_dialer_set_int()`::
This function is for options which take an integer (`int`).
`nng_stream_dialer_set_ms()`::
This function is used to configure time durations (such as timeouts) using
the type
xref:nng_duration.5.adoc[`nng_duration`].
The duration is an integer number of milliseconds.
`nng_stream_dialer_set_ptr()`::
This function is used to pass a pointer to structured data.
The data referenced by is generally managed by other functions.
For example, TLS configuration objects created with
xref:nng_tls_config_alloc.3tls.adoc[`nng_tls_config_alloc()`]
can be passed this way.
+
NOTE: This form is somewhat special in that the object is generally
not copied, but instead the *pointer* to the object is copied.
Please see the documentation for the specific option for further details.
`nng_stream_dialer_set_size()`::
This function is used to configure a size, typically for buffer sizes,
message maximum sizes, and similar options.
`nng_stream_dialer_set_string()`::
This function is used to pass configure a string.
Strings passed this way must be legal UTF-8 or ASCII strings, terminated
with a `NUL` (`\0`) byte.
(Other constraints may apply as well, see the documentation for each option
for details.)
`nng_stream_dialer_set_uint64()`::
This function is used to configure a 64-bit unsigned value/
This is typically used for identifiers, network numbers,
and similar options.
`nng_stream_dialer_set_addr()`::
This function is used to configure a
xref:nng_sockaddr.5.adoc[socket address].
The value is copied, and thus the caller may discard the supplied
value immediately after this function returns.
== RETURN VALUES
This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
== ERRORS
[horizontal]
`NNG_ECLOSED`:: The dialer is closed.
`NNG_EINVAL`:: Either _data_ or _size_ are invalid.
`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: The option is not supported.
`NNG_EREADONLY`:: The option may not be modified.
