<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>nn_send()</code> function creates a message containing <em>data</em> (of size <em>size</em>),
and sends using the socket <em>sock</em>.</p>
</div>
<div class="admonitionblock note">
<table>
<tr>
<td class="icon">
<i class="fa icon-note" title="Note"></i>
</td>
<td class="content">
This function is provided for API
<a href="nng_compat.3compat.html">compatibility</a> with legacy <em>libnanomsg</em>.
Consider using the relevant <a href="libnng.3.html">modern API</a> instead.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If <em>size</em> has the special value <code>NN_MSG</code>, then a zero-copy operation
is performed.
In this case, <em>data</em> points not to the message content itself, but instead
is a pointer to the pointer, an extra level of pointer indirection.
The message must have been previously allocated by
<a href="nn_allocmsg.3compat.html"><code>nn_allocmsg()</code></a> or
<a href="nn_recvmsg.3compat.html"><code>nn_recvmsg()</code></a><code>, using the same `NN_MSG</code> size.
In this case, the ownership of the message shall remain with
the caller, unless the function returns 0, indicating that the
function has taken responsibility for delivering or disposing of the
message.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <em>flags</em> field may contain the special flag <code>NN_DONTWAIT</code>.
In this case, if the socket is unable to accept more data for sending,
the operation shall not block, but instead will fail with the error <code>EAGAIN</code>.</p>
</div>
<div class="admonitionblock note">

The send operation is performed asynchronously, and may not have
completed before this function returns control to the caller.
