tt_default_ptype(3)

CDE

NAME

tt_default_ptype - retrieve the current default ptype

SYNOPSIS

#include <tt_c.h> char *tt_default_ptype(void);

DESCRIPTION

The tt_default_ptype function retrieves the current default ptype. When the application declares a ptype, the ptype becomes the default.

RETURN VALUE

Upon successful completion, the tt_default_ptype function returns a pointer to a character string that uniquely identifies the current default process type. If the pointer is NULL, no default ptype is set. The application can use tt_ptr_error(3) to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned pointer: 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 TT_ERR_PROCID The current default process identifier is out of date or invalid.

APPLICATION USAGE

The application should use tt_free(3) to free any data stored in the address returned by the ToolTalk API.
