== NAME
nng_http_res_copy_data - copy HTTP response body
== SYNOPSIS
[source, c]
----
#include <nng/nng.h>
#include <nng/supplemental/http/http.h>
int nng_http_res_copy_data(nng_http_res *res, const void *body, size_t size);
----
== DESCRIPTION
The `nng_http_res_copy_data()` makes a copy of _body_ (of size __size__)
and sets the HTTP body for the response _res_ to it.
The copy will be deallocated automatically when _res_ is freed.
The copied body data will be automatically sent with the response when it
is sent using xref:nng_http_conn_write_res.3http.adoc[`nng_http_conn_write_res()`].
This also updates the relevant `Content-Length` header of _res_.
NOTE: The current framework does not support sending data via chunked
transfer-encoding.
TIP: To avoid copying data, the
xref:nng_http_res_set_data.3http.adoc[`nng_http_res_set_data()`] may be used instead.
TIP: It is a good idea to also set the `Content-Type` header.
== RETURN VALUES
This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
== ERRORS
[horizontal]
`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient memory to perform the operation.
`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: No support for HTTP in the library.
