SYNOPSIS
#include "ns.h"
int
Ns_ConnClose(conn)
ARGUMENTS
-
Ns_Conn conn (in)
Pointer to open connection.
DESCRIPTION
This function calls the connection's communication driver to close the connection if it is not already closed. It always returns NS_OK.
If the connection is marked for keep-alive, the underlying connection is not actually closed but instead returned to the driver thread to process additional requests, if any. Connections are automatically marked for keep-alive by setting the NS_CONN_KEEPALIVE flag if the client supports it by sending an appropriate connection-keepalive header. Keep alive can be disabled before a call to Ns_ConnClose with the Ns_ConnSetKeepAliveFlag routine with a zero value for the flag argument.
KEYWORDS
connection, close, keep-alive
