NAME

       gnutls_transport_set_global_errno - API function

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno(int err);

ARGUMENTS

       int err     error value to store in global errno variable.

DESCRIPTION

       Store  err  in  the  global  errno  variable.  Useful values for err is
       EAGAIN and EINTR, other values are treated  will  be  treated  as  real
       errors in the push/pull function.

       This  function  is  useful  in  replacement  push/pull functions set by
       gnutls_transport_set_push_function                                  and
       gnutls_transport_set_pullpush_function   under   Windows,   where   the
       replacement push/pull may not have access to the  same  errno  variable
       that  is used by GnuTLS (e.g., the application is linked to msvcr71.dll
       and gnutls is linked to msvcrt.dll).

       Whether this function is thread safe or  not  depends  on  whether  the
       global  variable  errno is thread safe, some system libraries make it a
       thread-local variable.  When feasible, using the guaranteed thread-safe
       gnutls_transport_set_errno() may be better.
