== NAME

nng_http_req_set_header - set HTTP request header

== SYNOPSIS

[source, c]
-----------
#include <nng/nng.h>

int nng_http_req_set_header(nng_http_req *req, const char *key);

-----------

== DESCRIPTION

The `nng_http_req_del_header()` removes all HTTP headers with the
associated _key_ from the request structure _req_.

The value of _key_ is case insensitive, and should not include the final
colon in an HTTP header.  For example, specifying `Host` or `hOSt` are
equivalent, whereas the value `Host:` is not a legal header key.

== RETURN VALUES

This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.

== ERRORS

`NNG_ENOENT`:: No header with the key _key_ was present.
`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: No support for HTTP in the library.
