NNG_AIO_GET_MSG(3)

🎀 NNG_AIO_GET_MSG(3) 🎀

okay bestie, this one is from the NNG Reference Manual and it's literally the easiest little function ever, so let's go 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

nng_aio_get_msg — get a message out of an async receive, like reaching into your bag and pulling out exactly the snack you stashed 🍓

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <nng/nng.h>

nng_msg *nng_aio_get_msg(nng_aio *aio);

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So the way that nng_aio_get_msg() works is: it grabs whatever message is chillin' inside aio. And like, that message got there one of two ways, no cap:

• it landed there as the result of a successful receive — peep nng_recv_aio()
• or somebody put it there earlier with nng_aio_set_msg()

Either way, you ask, it hands it over. Iconic. 🫶

⚠️ Important, and I mean IMPORTANT — the nng_aio must not have an operation in progress. Like, do not come for this function mid-operation. Wait your turn, queen. 👑

---

⭐ RETURN VALUES ⭐

None. Nope, nothing, nada. It said what it said. 💀

---

🙈 ERRORS 🙈

None. Not a single one. She does not do errors. Periodt. ✨
