## nn_errno

Return most recent error (compatible API).

### Synopsis

```c
#include <nanomsg/nn.h>

int nn_errno(void);
```

### Description

The `nn_errno` function returns the error number corresponding to the
most recent failed operation by the calling thread.

IMPORTANT: The error numbers returned from this function includes errors caused by system functions, which overlap the usual `errno` variable.
However, the values returned may include numeric values that are not defined by the system, but are unique to _libnanomsg_.

This library implements the following error numbers, in addition to any others that might be set for `errno` by the underlying system:

### Return Values

This function returns the value of `errno`.
If no operation has failed, then this will be zero.
