gnutls_alert_send_appropriate(3) gnutls gnutls_alert_send_appropriate(3)
NAME
gnutls_alert_send_appropriate - API function
SYNOPSIS
#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>
gnutls_alert_send_appropriate(3) session, int err);
ARGUMENTS
gnutls_session_t session
is a gnutls_session_t type.
int err is an error code returned by another GnuTLS function
DESCRIPTION
Sends an alert to the peer depending on the error code returned by a
gnutls function. This function will call gnutls_error_to_alert() to
determine the appropriate alert to send.
This function may also return GNUTLS_E_AGAIN, or GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED.
This function historically was always sending an alert to the peer,
even if err was inappropriate to respond with an alert (e.g.,
GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS). Since 3.6.6 this function returns success without
transmitting any data on error codes that should not result to an
alert.
RETURNS
On success, GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) is returned, otherwise an error code
is returned.
