== NAME

nn_close - close socket (compatible API)

== SYNOPSIS

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

int nn_close(int sock);
----

== DESCRIPTION

The `nn_close()` function closes the socket _sock_.
Any operations that are currently in progress will be terminated, and will
fail with error `EBADF`.

NOTE: This function is provided for API
<<nng_compat.3compat#,compatibility>> with legacy _libnanomsg_.
Consider using the relevant <<libnng.3#,modern API>> instead.

== RETURN VALUES

This function returns zero on success, and -1 on failure.

== ERRORS

[horizontal]
`EBADF`:: The socket is not open.
`ETERM`:: The library is shutting down.
