# nng\_stream\_dialer(5)

byte stream dialer

## NAME

nng\_stream\_dialer - byte stream dialer

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <nng/nng.h>
typedef struct nng_stream_dialer nng_stream_dialer;
```

## DESCRIPTION

An `nng_stream_dialer` is a handle to a dialer for byte streams, and is responsible for creating `nng_stream` objects (corresponding to connected byte streams) by connecting to remote peers.

**Note**\

The `nng_stream_dialer` object is used for low-level byte stream connections, and should not be confused with a high-level `nng_dialer` object.
