NAME
tt_message_abstainers_count -- return a count of the offer's abstaining procids SYNOPSIS
#include <Tt/tt_c.h> int tt_message_abstainers_count( Tt_message m); DESCRIPTION
The tt_message_abstainers_count function returns a count of the procids that are recorded in the offer m as having abstained from it. The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this operation. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the tt_message_abstainers_count function returns a count of the procids that are recorded in the offer m as having abstained from it. The application can use tt_int_error to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned integer: TT_OK The operation completed successfully. TT_ERR_PROCID There is no valid default procid, perhaps because tt_open has not yet been called. TT_ERR_STATE The specified message is not in state TT_RETURNED. Since only TT_OFFERs can be in state TT_RETURNED, this status will be returned if the specified message is a TT_NOTICE or a TT_REQUEST. TT_ERR_POINTER The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this operation. SEE ALSO
Tt/tt_c.h - Tttt_c(5), tt_message_abstainer(3), tt_int_error(3). tt_message_abstainers_count(library call)
