NAME
  tt_message_context_val - retrieve the character string of a message's
  context

SYNOPSIS
  #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
  char *tt_message_context_val(Tt_message m,
			       const char *slotname);

DESCRIPTION
  The tt_message_context_val function retrieves the character string of a
  message's context.

  The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this
  operation.  The slotname argument describes the context of this message.

  If there is no context slot associated with slotname,
  tt_message_context_val returns a NULL pointer.

RETURN VALUE
  Upon successful completion, the tt_message_context_val function returns the
  contents for the message argument.  The application can use tt_ptr_error3
  to extract one of the following Tt_status values from the returned pointer:
  The operation completed successfully.
  The ttsession1 process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot
  restart it.
  The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for this
  operation.
  The specified slotname is syntactically invalid.

APPLICATION USAGE
  The application should use tt_free3 to free any data stored in the address
  returned by the ToolTalk API.
