tttk_message_abandon(3)

NAME
     tttk_message_abandon - finalize a message properly

SYNOPSIS
     #include <Tt/tttk.h>
     Tt_status tttk_message_abandon(Tt_message msg);

DESCRIPTION
     The tttk_message_abandon() function is used by an application when it
     does not understand a message and wants to get rid of it.  The
     tttk_message_abandon() function fails or rejects msg if appropriate, and
     then destroys it.  The tttk_message_abandon() will reject or fail the
     message only if msg is a TT_REQUEST in Tt_state TT_SENT.  If it has a
     Tt_address of TT_HANDLER or a tt_message_status() of
     TT_WRN_START_MESSAGE, then it fails the message; otherwise, it rejects
     it.  In either case, tttk_message_abandon() gives msg a message status
     (see tt_message_status(3)) of TT_DESKTOP_ENOTSUP.

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion, the tttk_message_abandon() function returns
     the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

        TT_OK   The operation completed successfully.

        TT_ERR_NOMP
                The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk
                service cannot restart it.

        TT_ERR_NOTHANDLER
                This application is not the handler for this message.

        TT_ERR_POINTER
                The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct
                type for this operation.
