+== NAME
+
+nng_ipc_dialer_close - close IPC dialer
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+[source, c]
+----
+#include <nng/nng.h>
+#include <nng/supplemental/ipc/ipc.h>
+
+void nng_ipc_dialer_close(nng_ipc_dialer *d);
+----
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+The `nng_ipc_dialer_close()` function closes the supplied IPC dialer _d_,
+but does not free the underlying resources associated with it.
+
+If any <<nng_ipc_dialer_dial.3ipc#,dial>> operations using _d_ are
+in progress, they will be terminated with an `NNG_ECLOSED` error condition.
+
+Furthermore any future accesses to the dialer _d_ will also result in
+`NNG_ECLOSED`.
+
+NOTE: This function does not release the memory for the dialer, so the
+application should still free the memory using
+<<nng_ipc_dialer_free.3ipc#,`nng_ipc_dialer_free(3ipc)`>>
+once it is certain that nothing else is using it.
+
+== RETURN VALUES
+
+None.
+
+== ERRORS
+
+None.
