-== NAME
-
-nng_dialer_create - create dialer
-
-== SYNOPSIS
-
-[source, c]
------------
-#include <nng/nng.h>
-
-int nng_dialer_create(nng_dialer *dialerp, nng_socket s, const char *url);
------------
-
-== DESCRIPTION
-
-The `nng_dialer_create()` function creates a newly initialized
-dialer, associated with socket _s_, and configured to connect to the
-address specified by _url_, and stores a pointer to at the location
-referenced by _dialerp_.
-
-Dialers initiate a remote connection to a listener. Upon a successful
-connection being established, they create a pipe, add it to the socket,
-and then wait for that pipe to be closed. When the pipe is closed,
-they will re-initiate the connection. Dialer's will also periodically
-retry a connection automatically if an attempt to connect asynchronously
-fails.
-
-TIP: While it is convenient to think of dialers as "clients", the relationship
-between the listener or dialer is orthogonal to any server or client status
-that might be associated with a given protocol. For example, a <<nng_req#,REQ>>
-socket might have associated dialers, but might also have associated listeners.
-It may even have some of each at the same time!
-
-The dialer is not started, but may be further configured with
-the <<nng_dialer_setopt#,nng_dialer_setopt(3)>> family of
-functions.
-
-Once it is fully configured, the dialer may be started using the
-<<nng_dialer_start#,nng_dialer_start(3)>> function.
-
-TIP: If no specific configuration is required, consider using the
-simpler <<nng_dial#,nng_dial(3)>> function instead.
-
-== RETURN VALUES
-
-This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
-
-== ERRORS
-
-`NNG_EADDRINVAL`:: An invalid _url_ was specified.
-`NNG_ECLOSED`:: The socket _s_ is not open.
-`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient memory is available.
