# ixp\_respond(3)

## NAME

ixp\_respond

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <ixp.h>
void ixp_respond(Ixp9Req *req, const char *error);
```

## DESCRIPTION

Sends a response to the given request. The response is constructed from the *ofcall* member of the *req* parameter, or from the *error* parameter if it is non-null. In the latter case, the response is of type RError, while in any other case it is of the same type as *req*-\>*ofcall*, which must match the request type in *req*-\>*ifcall*.
