<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>nng_http_conn_transact()</code> function is used to perform a complete
HTTP exchange over the connection <em>conn</em>, sending the request <em>req</em>
(and attached body data) to the remote server, and reading the response
<em>res</em>.
The entire response is read, including any associated body, which can
subsequently be obtained using
<a href="nng_http_res_get_data.3http.html"><code>nng_http_res_get_data()</code></a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This function is intended to make creation of client applications easier,
by performing multiple asynchronous operations required to complete an
entire HTTP transaction.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If an error occurs, the caller should close <em>conn</em> with
<a href="nng_http_conn_close.3http.html"><code>nng_http_conn_close()</code></a>, as it may not
necessarily be usable with other transactions.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>A similar function,
<a href="nng_http_client_transact.3http.html"><code>nng_http_client_transact()</code></a>,
exists.
That function behaves similarily, but creates a connection on demand
for the transaction, and disposes of it when finished.</p>
</div>
<div class="admonitionblock warning">

<tr>
<td class="icon">
<i class="fa icon-warning" title="Warning"></i>
</td>
<td class="content">
If the remote server tries to send an extremely large buffer,
then a corresponding allocation will be made, which can lead to denial
of service attacks.
Client applications should take care to use this only with reasonably
trust-worthy servers.
</td>
</tr>

<div class="admonitionblock warning">

A given connection <em>conn</em> should be used with only one
operation or transaction at a time as HTTP/1.1 has no support for
request interleaving.
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This function returns immediately, with no return value.
Completion of the operation is signaled via the <em>aio</em>, and the final result
may be obtained via <a href="nng_aio_result.3.html"><code>nng_aio_result()</code></a>.
That result will either be zero or an error code.</p>
