NAME
       tt_pattern_print - format a pattern

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       char *tt_pattern_print(Tt_pattern p);

DESCRIPTION
       The  tt_pattern_print()  function  formats  a pattern in the same way a
       message is formatted for the ttsession(1) trace and  returns  a  string
       containing it.

       The p argument is the pattern to be formatted.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, the tt_pattern_print() function returns the
       formatted string.  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_NOMEM
                  There  is insufficient memory available to perform the func-
                  tion.

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

APPLICATION USAGE
       The  tt_pattern_print()  function  allows an application writer to dump
       out patterns for debugging.
