Description

NAME
       tt_message_id - retrieve the identifier of a message

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       char *tt_message_id(Tt_message m);

DESCRIPTION
       The  tt_message_id() function retrieves the identifier of the specified
       message.

       The m argument is the opaque handle for the message  involved  in  this
       operation.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful  completion,  the tt_message_id() function returns the
       character string value that uniquely identifies the message across  all
       running ToolTalk sessions.  The identifier of the message is set at its
       creation and never changes.  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_POINTER
                  The  pointer  passed does not point to an object of the cor-
                  rect type for this operation.

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