NAME
       tt_session_bprop  -  retrieve  the ith value of the named property of a
       session

SYNOPSIS
       #include <Tt/tt_c.h>
       Tt_status tt_session_bprop(const char *sessid,
                                  const char *propname,
                                  int i,
                                  unsigned char **value,
                                  int *length);

DESCRIPTION
       The tt_session_bprop() function retrieves the ith value  of  the  named
       property of the specified session.

       If  there  are  i  values  or  fewer,  both  the returned value and the
       returned length are set to zero.

       The sessid argument is the session joined.  The application can use the
       sessid  value  returned when tt_default_session() is called.  The prop-
       name argument is the name of the property from which values are  to  be
       obtained.   The  i  argument  is the number of the item in the property
       list from which the value is to be obtained.  The list numbering begins
       with zero.  The value argument is the address of a character pointer to
       which the ToolTalk service is to point a string that contains the  con-
       tents  of  the property.  The len argument is the address of an integer
       to which the ToolTalk service is to set the  length  of  the  value  in
       bytes.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, the tt_session_bprop() function returns the
       status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

          TT_OK   The operation completed successfully.
