== NAME

nng_sleep_aio - sleep asynchronously

== SYNOPSIS

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

void nng_sleep_aio(nng_duration msec, nng_aio *aio);
-----------

== DESCRIPTION

The `nng_sleep_aio()` function performs an asynchronous "`sleep``",
causing the callback for _aio_ to be executed after _msec_ milliseconds.
This is logically the equivalent of starting an asynchronous operation
that does nothing at all, but expires after _msec_ duration, _except_ that
the completion result will be zero rather `NNG_ETIMEDOUT`.

NOTE: This overrides and replaces any timeout on the _aio_ set with
<<nng_aio_set_timeout#,nng_aio_set_timeout(3)>>.

== RETURN VALUES

None.

== ERRORS

None.
