NNG_DIALER_ID(3)

💖 NAME 💖

nng_dialer_id — bestie, this one hands you back the numeric dialer identifier, no cap 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <nng/nng.h>

int nng_dialer_id(nng_dialer d);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so picture this: you've got a dialer d, and you just wanna know which one it is. That's literally the whole plot. nng_dialer_id() returns a positive identifier for the dialer d — but only if it's valid. If it's not valid? She gives you -1. That's it, that's the function. 💅

👑 Note (important, bestie, listen): A dialer counts as valid if it was ever created with the nng_dialer_create() or nng_dial() functions. If you've got dialers allocated on the stack, or ones that are static, you should initialize them with the NNG_DIALER_INITIALIZER macro — that way they literally cannot get confused with a valid dialer before they're created properly. no mixed signals, no embarrassing mix-ups, periodt 🙈

---

🌸 RETURN VALUES 🌸

This function returns the positive value for the dialer identifier, or -1 if the dialer is invalid. That's the vibe check: positive = she's real, -1 = nope 💀

---

🎀 ERRORS 🎀

None. Not a single one. Zero drama, we love a low-maintenance function 🫶✨
