== NAME
|
|
|
|
nng_strdup - duplicate string
|
|
|
|
== SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
[source, c]
|
|
----
|
|
#include <nng/nng.h>
|
|
|
|
char *nng_strdup(const char *src);
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
== DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The `nng_strdup()` duplicates the string _src_ and returns it.
|
|
|
|
This is logically equivalent to using xref:nng_alloc.3.adoc[`nng_alloc()`]
|
|
to allocate a region of memory of `strlen(s) + 1` bytes, and then
|
|
using `strcpy()` to copy the string into the destination before
|
|
returning it.
|
|
|
|
The returned string should be deallocated with
|
|
xref:nng_strfree.3.adoc[`nng_strfree()`], or may be deallocated using the
|
|
xref:nng_free.3.adoc[`nng_free()`] using the length of the returned string plus
|
|
one (for the `NUL` terminating byte).
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: Do not use the system `free()` or similar functions to deallocate
|
|
the string, since those may use a different memory arena!
|
|
|
|
== RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
This function returns the new string on success, and `NULL` on failure.
|
|
|
|
== ERRORS
|
|
|
|
No errors are returned, but a `NULL` return value should be
|
|
treated the same as `NNG_ENOMEM`.
