NAME

       tt_message_print -- format a message

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       char *tt_message_print(
       Tt_message *m);

DESCRIPTION

       The tt_message_print function formats a message in the same way a message is formatted for the ttsession(1) trace and returns a string con-
       taining it.

       The m argument is the message to be formatted.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the tt_message_print function returns the formatted string.	The application 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_NOMEM
		 There is insufficient memory available to perform the function.

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

APPLICATION USAGE

       The tt_message_print function allows an application to dump out messages that are received but not understood.

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

SEE ALSO

       Tt/tt_c.h - Tttt_c(5), tt_free(3), tt_ptr_error(3).
