NAME
       tt_message_user_set - stores user information associated with a message
       object

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       Tt_status tt_message_user_set(Tt_message m,
                                     int key,
                                     void *v);

DESCRIPTION
       The tt_message_user_set() function  stores  user  information  in  data
       cells associated with the specified message object.

       The  user data is part of the message object (that is, the storage buf-
       fer in the application); it is not part of the  actual  message.   Data
       stored  by  the  sending process in user data cells is not seen by han-
       dlers and observers.  The application can use arguments for  data  that
       needs to be seen by handlers or observers.

       The  m  argument  is the opaque handle for the message involved in this
       operation.  The key argument is the user data cell in which user infor-
       mation  is  to  be stored.  The v argument is the data cell, a piece of
       arbitrary user data that can hold a void *.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, the tt_message_user_set() 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_POINTER
                  The pointer passed does not point to an object of  the  cor-
                  rect type for this operation.

          TT_ERR_PROCID
                  The specified process identifier is out of date or invalid.
