NAME

tt_message_arg_xval_set — serialize and set data into an existing message argument

SYNOPSIS

#include &<Tt/tt_c.h>
Tt_status tt_message_arg_xval_set(
Tt_message m,
int n,
xdrproc_t xdr_proc,
void *value);

DESCRIPTION

The tt_message_arg_xval_set function serializes and sets data into an existing message argument.

The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this operation. The n argument is the number of the argument to be changed. The first argument is numbered zero. The xdr_proc argument causes tt_message_arg_xval_set to serialize the data pointed to by value and store it as a byte string value of the nth argument of the message. The value argument is the data to be serialized.
