+== DESCRIPTION
+
+An ((`nng_duration`))(((duration))) is a relative time, measured in
+milliseconds.
+This type is most often used in conjuction with timers and timeouts.
+
+A couple of special values have been set aside, and carry special meanings.
+
+[[NNG_DURATION_DEFAULT]]((`NNG_DURATION_DEFAULT`)):::
+Indicates a context-specific default value should be used.
+
+[[NNG_DURATION_INFINITE]]((`NNG_DURATION_INFINITE`)):::
+Effectively an infinite duration; used most often to disable timeouts.
+
+[[NNG_DURATION_ZERO]]((`NNG_DURATION_ZERO`)):::
+Zero length duration; used to perform a single polling operation.

+
+typedef uint32_t nng_socket;
+-----------
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+An ((`nng_socket`))(((socket))) is a handle to an underlying "`socket`" object.
+All communication between the application and remote Scalability Protocol
+peers is done through sockets.
+A given socket can have multiple dialers (<<nng_dialer#,`nng_dialer`>>)
+and/or (<<nng_listener#,`nng_listener`>>), and multiple
+pipes (<<nng_pipe#,`nng_pipe`>>), and
+may be connected to multiple transports at the same time.
+However, a given socket will have exactly one "`protocol`" associated with it,
+and is responsible for any state machines or other protocol-specific logic.
+
+NOTE: Although `nng_socket` is an integer data type, these objects are not
+ordinary file descriptors, and can only be used with the functions that
+explicitly indicate that it safe and appropropate to do so.
+
+Each `nng_socket` is created by a protocol-specific constructor, such as
+<<nng_rep0_open#,`nng_rep0_open()`>>.
+When the socket is no longer needed, it can be closed with
+<<nng_close#,`nng_close()`>>.
