XS_CLOSE(3) Crossroads I/O Manual XS_CLOSE(3)NAMExs_close - close Crossroads socket
SYNOPSIS
int xs_close (void *socket);
DESCRIPTION
The xs_close() function shall destroy the socket referenced by the
socket argument. Any outstanding messages physically received from the
network but not yet received by the application with xs_recv() shall be
discarded. The behaviour for discarding messages sent by the
application with xs_send() but not yet physically transferred to the
network depends on the value of the XS_LINGER socket option for the
specified socket.
Note
The default setting of XS_LINGER does not discard unsent messages;
this behaviour may cause the application to block when calling
xs_term(). For details refer to xs_setsockopt(3) and xs_term(3).
RETURN VALUE
The xs_close() function shall return zero if successful. Otherwise it
shall return -1 and set errno to one of the values defined below.
ERRORS
ENOTSOCK
The provided socket was invalid.
