The details of the type, size, and semantics of the option will depend on the actual option, and will be documented with the option itself. -TIP: Generally, it will be easier to use one of the typed versions -of this function. - -==== `nng_ctx_setopt()` +`nng_ctx_setopt()`:: This function is untyped, and can be used to configure any arbitrary data. The _val_ pointer addresses the data to copy, and _valsz_ is the size of the objected located at _val_. -==== `nng_ctx_setopt_bool()` +TIP: It may be easier to use one of the typed forms of this function. + +`nng_ctx_setopt_bool()`:: This function is for options which take a Boolean (`bool`). The _bval_ is passed to the option. -==== `nng_ctx_setopt_int()` +`nng_ctx_setopt_int()`:: This function is for options which take an integer (`int`). The _ival_ is passed to the option. -==== `nng_ctx_setopt_ms()` +`nng_ctx_setopt_ms()`:: This function is used to configure time durations (such as timeouts) using type `<<nng_duration.5#,nng_duration>>`. The duration _dur_ is an integer number of milliseconds. -==== `nng_ctx_setopt_size()` +`nng_ctx_setopt_size()`:: This function is used to configure a size, _z_, typically for buffer sizes, message maximum sizes, and similar options. -==== `nng_ctx_setopt_string()` +`nng_ctx_setopt_string()`:: This function is used to pass configure a string, _str_. Strings passed this way must be legal UTF-8 or ASCII strings, terminated with a `NUL` (`\0`) byte. (Other constraints may apply as well, see the documentation for each option for details.) -==== `nng_ctx_setopt_uint64()` +`nng_ctx_setopt_uint64()`:: This function is used to configure a 64-bit unsigned value, _u64_. This is typically used for options related to identifiers, network numbers, and similar. |
