== NAME

nng_http_res_alloc_error - allocate HTTP error response

== SYNOPSIS

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

int nng_http_res_alloc_error(nng_http_res **resp, uint16_t status);
-----------


== DESCRIPTION

The `nng_http_res_alloc_error()` function allocates a new HTTP response structure
and stores a pointer to it in __resp__.  The response will be initialized
with the status code _status_, a corresponding reason phrase, and
a simple HTML page containing the same information will be generated and
attached to the response. (Relevant HTTP headers will be set as well,
such as `Content-Type` and `Content-Length`.)  The HTTP protocol version
is also set to "HTTP/1.1".

TIP: This is the simplest way to generate an error response.

== RETURN VALUES

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

== ERRORS

`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient free memory exists to allocate a message.
`NNG_ENOTSUP`:: HTTP support not configured.
