tt_message_fail(library call)											     tt_message_fail(library call)

NAME

       tt_message_fail -- indicate a message cannot be handled

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       Tt_status tt_message_fail(
       Tt_message m);

DESCRIPTION

       The tt_message_fail function informs the ToolTalk service that the process cannot handle the request just received.

       This function also informs the ToolTalk service that the message is not be offered to other processes of the same ptype.  The ToolTalk ser-
       vice will send the message back to the sender with state TT_FAILED.

       The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this operation.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the tt_message_fail function returns the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

       TT_OK	 The operation completed successfully.

       TT_ERR_NOMP
		 The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.

       TT_ERR_NOTHANDLER
		 This application is not the handler for this message.

       TT_ERR_POINTER
		 The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this operation.

       The status value must be greater than TT_ERR_LAST to avoid confusion with the ToolTalk service status values.

APPLICATION USAGE

       To distinguish this case from the case where a message failed because no matching handler could be found, the application should  place	an
       explanatory  message  code  in the status attribute of the message with tt_message_status_set(3) and tt_message_status_string_set(3) before
       calling tt_message_fail.

NAME

       tt_message_handler_ptype -- retrieve the handler ptype attribute from a message

       char *tt_message_handler_ptype(
       Tt_message m);

DESCRIPTION

       The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this operation.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon  successful completion, the tt_message_handler_ptype function returns the type of process that should handle this message.	The appli-
       cation can use tt_ptr_error(3) to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned pointer:

       TT_OK	 The operation completed successfully.

       TT_ERR_NOMP
		 The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it.

       TT_ERR_POINTER
		 The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this operation.

APPLICATION USAGE

       The application should use tt_free(3) to free any data stored in the address returned by the ToolTalk API.
