NNG_HTTP_RES_ALLOC(3http)

📦 version 1.11, in alpine 3.24

🎀 NAME 🎀

nng_http_res_alloc — allocate HTTP response structure. Okay bestie, this is the NNG_HTTP_RES_ALLOC(3http) page from the NNG Reference Manual, and we’re about to make a whole HTTP response from scratch. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <nng/nng.h>
#include <nng/supplemental/http/http.h>

int nng_http_res_alloc(nng_http_res **resp);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so nng_http_res_alloc() allocates a new HTTP response structure and stores a pointer to it in resp. The response comes out initialized with status code 200 (NNG_HTTP_STATUS_OK), a reason phrase of OK, and HTTP protocol version HTTP/1.1. It’s giving “fresh response, ready to slay” energy. ✨

💡 Tip: when an error response is needed, consider using nng_http_res_alloc_error() instead. That’s the move, bestie. 🫶

🌈 RETURN VALUES 🌈

This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise. Periodt.

💀 ERRORS 💀

  • NNG_ENOMEM — Insufficient free memory exists to allocate a message. 😭
  • NNG_ENOTSUP — HTTP support not configured. 💀
