== NAME
nng_http_server_stop - stop HTTP server
== SYNOPSIS
[source, c]
----
#include <nng/nng.h>
#include <nng/supplemental/http/http.h>
void nng_http_server_stop(nng_http_server *server);
----
== DESCRIPTION
The `nng_http_server_stop()` undoes the effect of
xref:nng_http_server_start.3http.adoc[`nng_http_server_start()`].
Each call by
xref:nng_http_server_start.3http.adoc[`nng_http_server_start()`] acts as reference
count, and should be matched by a call to `nng_http_server_stop()`.
When the reference count drops to zero, then the server is actually stopped,
and existing open connections to it are closed.
This function does not wait for the connections to close.
NOTE: Once the server instance is actually stopped, it cannot be started again,
and any future calls to xref:nng_http_server_hold.3http.adoc[`nng_http_server_hold()`]
will return a new instance of the server.
It is expected that the caller will follow this function call with a call to
xref:nng_http_server_release.3http.adoc[`nng_http_server_release()`].
== RETURN VALUES
None.
== ERRORS
None.
