== NAME

nng_stream_dialer_close - close byte stream dialer

== SYNOPSIS

[source, c]
----
#include <nng/nng.h>

void nng_stream_dialer_close(nng_stream_dialer *d);
----

== DESCRIPTION

The `nng_stream_dialer_close()` function closes the supplied byte stream
dialer _d_,
but does not free the underlying resources associated with it.

If any
xref:nng_stream_dialer_dial.3str.adoc[dial]
operations using _d_ are
in progress, they will be terminated with an `NNG_ECLOSED` error condition.

Furthermore any future accesses to the dialer _d_ will also result in
`NNG_ECLOSED`.

NOTE: This function does not release the memory for the dialer, so the
application should still free the memory using
xref:nng_stream_dialer_free.3str.adoc[`nng_stream_dialer_free()`]
once it is certain that nothing else is using it.

== RETURN VALUES

None.

== ERRORS

None.
