NAME
       tt_message_context_val -- retrieve the character string of a message's context

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       char *tt_message_context_val(
       Tt_message m,
       const char *slotname);

DESCRIPTION
       The tt_message_context_val function retrieves the character string of a message's context.

       The  m  argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this operation.  The slotname argument describes the context of this mes-
       sage.

       If there is no context slot associated with slotname, tt_message_context_val returns a NULL pointer.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, the tt_message_context_val function returns the contents for the message argument.	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_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.

       TT_ERR_SLOTNAME
		 The specified slotname is syntactically invalid.

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