+== NAME
+
+nng_ctx_recvmsg - receive message using socket
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+[source, c]
+----
+#include <nng/nng.h>
+
+int nng_ctx_recvmsg(nng_ctx ctx, nng_msg **msgp, int flags);
+----
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+The `nng_ctx_recvmsg()` receives a message on context _ctx_, storing the
+received message at the location pointed to by _msgp_.
+
+The _flags_ may contain the following value:
+
+`NNG_FLAG_NONBLOCK`::
+ The function returns immediately, even if no message is available.
+ Without this flag, the function will wait until a message is receivable
+ on the context _ctx_, or any configured timer expires.
+
+NOTE: The semantics of what receiving a message means vary from protocol to
+protocol, so examination of the protocol documentation is encouraged.
+
+== RETURN VALUES
+
+This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
+
+== ERRORS
+
+[horizontal]
+`NNG_EAGAIN`:: The operation would block, but `NNG_FLAG_NONBLOCK` was specified.
+`NNG_ECLOSED`:: The context or socket is not open.
+`NNG_EINVAL`:: An invalid set of _flags_ was specified.
+`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient memory is available.
+`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: The protocol does not support receiving.
+`NNG_ESTATE`:: The context cannot receive data in this state.
+`NNG_ETIMEDOUT`:: The operation timed out.
