From 53d5c2766d90a53d3f6c0437bc59c1ad63ec701a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Garrett D'Amore Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2018 14:06:07 -0700 Subject: Add documentation for supplemental functions. This includes platform portability stuff like mutexes and threads, etc. While here we fixed a problem with nng_opts_parse and we addressed the type of the platform API. --- docs/man/nng_random.3supp.adoc | 44 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 44 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs/man/nng_random.3supp.adoc (limited to 'docs/man/nng_random.3supp.adoc') diff --git a/docs/man/nng_random.3supp.adoc b/docs/man/nng_random.3supp.adoc new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9003fea8 --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/man/nng_random.3supp.adoc @@ -0,0 +1,44 @@ += nng_random(3supp) +// +// Copyright 2018 Staysail Systems, Inc. +// Copyright 2018 Capitar IT Group BV +// +// This document is supplied under the terms of the MIT License, a +// copy of which should be located in the distribution where this +// file was obtained (LICENSE.txt).
