TT_THREAD_SESSION_SET(3)

okay bestie, this is the tt_thread_session_set(library call) page — manual name folded in right here because we are not doing boring headers today 💅✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

tt_thread_session_set — set the default session identifier for the current thread. literally that. no cap. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include &<Tt/tt_c.h>
Tt_status tt_thread_session_set(
const char *sessid);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so tt_thread_session_set sets the default session identifier for the currently active thread. ToolTalk uses the initial user session as the default session, and it supports one session per procid. The application can make this call before it calls tt_open to specify which session it wants to connect to in the active thread. 📌

If you wanna change to another opened session, the application must use either tt_thread_procid_set or tt_default_procid_set. That’s the rule, bestie. 🔁

To join other sessions, the procid must first set the new session as the default session, and then initialize and register with the ToolTalk service. The calls required must be in this order: tt_thread_session_set or tt_default_session_set, and then tt_open. 🪄

The tt_open call may create another ToolTalk procid, and the connection to that is identified by a procid. Only one ToolTalk session per procid is allowed. (However, multiple procids are allowed in a client.) 👑

There are no API calls to determine the session to which a procid is connected. If it is important for the application to know the session to which it is connected, it must make these calls in the indicated order: tt_open and then tt_thread_session. That’s the only tea. 🍵

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• sessid — specifies a pointer to the unique identifier string for the session that is to be the default session for the current thread. it’s giving “tell me which session, bestie” 🎯

🌈 RETURN VALUE 🌈

Upon successful completion, tt_thread_session_set returns the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

• TT_OK — the operation completed successfully. slay. ✅
• TT_ERR_NOMP — the ttsession process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot start it. 😭
• TT_ERR_PROCID — the current default process identifier is out of date or invalid. 💀
• TT_ERR_SESSION — the specified ToolTalk session is out of date or invalid. 🙈
• TT_ERR_UNIMP — the ToolTalk implementation does not support multithreading. 🫠
• TT_ERR_TOOLATE — the multithreading feature has not been enabled. ⏰

🦋 APPLICATION USAGE 🦋

Some ToolTalk API calls implicitly depend on the current default session. Setting the default session for the specific thread prevents race conditions caused by other threads changing the global default session. so basically: protect your thread’s vibe from global chaos. 🧚

mwah 💋 and that’s the page. source/version/date tea: the original footer was just tt_thread_session_set(library call) — no extra source, version, or date line came with it, so I’m not inventing one, periodt. 🫶🎀
