nng_stream_close(3str)

NAME

nng_stream_close - close byte stream

SYNOPSIS

#include <nng/nng.h>

void nng_stream_close(nng_stream *s);

DESCRIPTION

The nng_stream_close() function closes the byte stream s.

If any operations are pending, such as nng_stream_send() or nng_stream_recv(), they will be terminated with an NNG_ECLOSED error condition. Also, any new operations will fail with NNG_ECLOSED after the connection is closed.

Closing the connection while data is in transmission will likely lead to loss of that data. There is no automatic linger or flush to ensure that the socket send buffers have completely transmitted.
Closing the connection does not free the resources associated with it. Once it is certain that no more operations are pending on the connection, it should be freed with nng_stream_free().

RETURN VALUES

None.

ERRORS

None.
