nng_http_res_set_status(3http)

NAME

nng_http_res_set_status - set HTTP response status

SYNOPSIS

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

int nng_http_res_set_status(nng_http_res *res, uint16_t status);

DESCRIPTION

The nng_http_res_set_status() sets the numeric HTTP status code associated with the response res to status. The default value for a newly allocated response is 200 (NNG_HTTP_STATUS_OK).

The status is not verified, so the caller should take care to ensure that only a valid code is supplied.

For convenience, a number of predefined symbols are available.

Please see the relevant HTTP RFCs for the semantics and correct use of these status codes.

It is a good idea to also set the reason message with nng_http_set_reason(). This will help any humans who may have to diagnose a failure.

RETURN VALUES

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