tt_pnotice_create(library call) 										   tt_pnotice_create(library call)

NAME
tt_pnotice_create -- create a procedure notice SYNOPSIS
#include <Tt/tt_c.h> Tt_message tt_pnotice_create( Tt_scope scope, const char *op); DESCRIPTION
The tt_pnotice_create function creates a message. The created message contains the following: Tt_address = TT_PROCEDURE Tt_class = TT_NOTICE The application can use the returned handle to add arguments and other attributes, and to send the message. The scope argument determines which processes are eligible to receive the message. The following values are defined: TT_SESSION All processes joined to the indicated session are eligible. TT_FILE All processes joined to the indicated file are eligible. TT_BOTH All processes joined to either indicated file or the indicated session are eligible. TT_FILE_IN_SESSION All processes joined to both the indicated file and the indicated session are eligible. The op argument is the operation to be performed by the receiving process. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the tt_pnotice_create function returns the unique handle that identifies this message. The application can use tt_ptr_error(3) to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned handle: 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 TT_ERR_PROCID The specified process identifier is out of date or invalid. APPLICATION USAGE
The application should use tt_free(3) to free any data stored in the address returned by the ToolTalk API. If the ToolTalk service is unable to create a message when requested, tt_pnotice_create returns an invalid handle. When the application attempts to use this handle with another ToolTalk function, the ToolTalk service will return TT_ERR_POINTER. SEE ALSO

#include <Tt/tt_c.h> Tt_status tt_session_bprop( const char *sessid, const char *propname, int i, unsigned char **value, int *length); DESCRIPTION
The tt_session_bprop function retrieves the ith value of the named property of the specified session. If there are i values or fewer, both the returned value and the returned length are set to zero. The sessid argument is the session joined. The application can use the sessid value returned when tt_default_session is called. The prop- name argument is the name of the property from which values are to be obtained. The i argument is the number of the item in the property list from which the value is to be obtained. The list numbering begins with zero. The value argument is the address of a character pointer to which the ToolTalk service is to point a string that contains the contents of the property. The len argument is the address of an integer to which the ToolTalk service is to set the length of the value in bytes. RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the tt_session_bprop function returns the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values: TT_OK The operation completed successfully. TT_ERR_NOMEM There is insufficient memory available to perform the function. TT_ERR_NOMP The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot restart it. TT_ERR_NUM The integer value passed was invalid (out of range). TT_ERR_PROPNAME The specified property name is syntactically invalid. TT_ERR_SESSION The specified ToolTalk session is out of date or invalid. SEE ALSO
