NAME
tttk_message_abandon -- finalize a message properly
SYNOPSIS
#include <Tt/tttk.h>
Tt_status tttk_message_abandon(
Tt_message msg);
DESCRIPTION
The tttk_message_abandon function is used by an application when it does not understand a message and wants to get rid of it. The
tttk_message_abandon function fails or rejects msg if appropriate, and then destroys it. The tttk_message_abandon will reject or fail the
message only if msg is a TT_REQUEST in Tt_state TT_SENT. If it has a Tt_address of TT_HANDLER or a tt_message_status of TT_WRN_START_MES-
SAGE, then it fails the message; otherwise, it rejects it. In either case, tttk_message_abandon gives msg a message status (see tt_mes-
sage_status(3)) of TT_DESKTOP_ENOTSUP.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the tttk_message_abandon 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.
