The nng_pipe_get() functions are used to retrieve option values for
the pipe p.
The actual options that may be retrieved in this way
vary, and many are documented in nng_options(5).
Additionally some transport-specific options and protocol-specific options are
documented with the transports and protocols themselves.

Note
|
All options on a pipe are read-only values.
Modification of options may be done before the pipe is created using
nng_listener_set() or
nng_dialer_set().
|
Any option that is set on a dialer or listener will normally be retrievable from pipes created by that dialer or listener.
In all of these forms, the option opt is retrieved from the pipe p.
The details of the type, size, and semantics of the option will depend on the actual option, and will be documented with the option itself.
nng_pipe_get()-
This is untyped, and can be used to retrieve the value of any option. A pointer to a buffer to receive the value in val, and the size of the buffer shall be stored at the location referenced by valszp.
When the function returns, the actual size of the data copied (or that would have been copied if sufficient space were present) is stored at the location referenced by valszp. If the caller’s buffer is not large enough to hold the entire object, then the copy is truncated. Therefore the caller should check for truncation by verifying that the size returned in valszp does not exceed the original buffer size.
It is acceptable to passNULLfor val if the value in valszp is zero. This can be used to determine the size of the buffer needed to receive the object.

Tip
|
It may be easier to use one of the typed forms of this function. |
nng_pipe_get_bool()-
This function is for options which take a Boolean (
bool). The value will be stored at bvalp. nng_pipe_get_int()-
This function is for options which take an integer (
int). The value will be stored at ivalp. nng_pipe_get_ms()-
This function is used to retrieve time durations (
nng_duration) in milliseconds, which are stored in durp. nng_pipe_get_ptr()-
This function is used to retrieve a pointer, ptr, to structured data. The data referenced by ptr is generally managed using other functions. Note that this form is somewhat special in that the object is generally not copied, but instead the pointer to the object is copied.
nng_pipe_get_size()-
This function is used to retrieve a size into the pointer zp, typically for buffer sizes, message maximum sizes, and similar options.
nng_pipe_get_addr()-
This function is used to retrieve an
nng_sockaddrinto sap. nng_pipe_get_string()-
This function is used to retrieve a string into strp. This string is created from the source using
nng_strdup()and consequently must be freed by the caller usingnng_strfree()when it is no longer needed. nng_pipe_get_uint64()-
This function is used to retrieve a 64-bit unsigned value into the value referenced by u64p. This is typically used for options related to identifiers, network numbers, and similar.
NNG_EBADTYPE
|
Incorrect type for option. |
NNG_ECLOSED
|
Parameter p does not refer to an open pipe. |
NNG_ENOTSUP
|
The option opt is not supported. |
NNG_ENOMEM
|
Insufficient memory exists. |
NNG_EINVAL
|
Size of destination val too small for object. |
NNG_EWRITEONLY
|
The option opt is write-only. |
