int nng_dialer_setopt_uint64(nng_dialer d, const char *opt, uint64_t u64);DESCRIPTION
The nng_dialer_setopt() functions are used to configure options for
the dialer d.
The actual options that may be configured in this way
vary, and many are documented in nng_options(5).
Additionally some transport-specific options are documented with the transports themselves.
| Once a dialer has started, it is generally not possible to change it’s configuration. |
Forms
In all of these forms, the option opt is configured on the dialer d.
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.
| Generally, it will be easier to use one of the typed forms instead. |
nng_dialer_setopt()
This function is untyped, and can be used to configure any arbitrary data. The val pointer addresses the data to copy, and valsz is the size of the objected located at val.
nng_dialer_setopt_bool()
This function is for options which take a Boolean (bool).
The bval is passed to the option.
nng_dialer_setopt_int()
This function is for options which take an integer (int).
The ival is passed to the option.
nng_dialer_setopt_ms()
This function is used to configure time durations (such as timeouts) using
type nng_duration.
The duration dur is an integer number of milliseconds.
nng_dialer_setopt_ptr()
This function is used to pass a pointer, ptr, to structured data.
The data referenced by ptr is generally managed by other functions.
For example, TLS configuration objects created with
(nng_tls_config_alloc())
can be passed this way.
Note that this form is somewhat special in that the object is generally
not copied, but instead the pointer to the object is copied.
nng_dialer_setopt_size()
This function is used to configure a size, z, typically for buffer sizes, message maximum sizes, and similar options.
nng_dialer_setopt_string()
This function is used to pass configure a string, str.
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_dialer_setopt_uint64()
This function is used to configure a 64-bit unsigned value, u64. This is typically used for options related to identifiers, network numbers, and similar.
RETURN VALUES
These functions return 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
ERRORS
NNG_EBADTYPE
|
Incorrect type for option. |
NNG_ECLOSED
|
Parameter d does not refer to an open dialer. |
NNG_EINVAL
|
The value being passed is invalid. |
NNG_ENOTSUP
|
The option opt is not supported. |
NNG_EREADONLY
|
The option opt is read-only. |
NNG_ESTATE
|
The dialer d is already started. |
