Resynchronizes communications on a virtual circuit.
X.25 Communications Library (libx25s.a)
int x25_reset(conn_id, cb_res) int conn_id; struct cb_res_struct *cb_res;
The x25_reset subroutine sends a reset-indication packet to reset the virtual circuit using the specified connection identifier.
If the application is sending data at the time this subroutine is called, the data is flushed from the system, and the x25_send subroutine returns an appropriate error code. Incoming data not already passed to the application will be flushed. Because resets can cause data to be lost, it is the responsibility of the application to provide higher-level protocol for data protection.
| conn_id | Contains the connection identifier of the call. |
| cb_res | Specifies a pointer to the cb_res_struct structure, which is used to pass the reset cause and diagnostic codes. |
If successful, the x25_reset subroutine returns a value of 0. If an error occurs, the x25_reset subroutine returns a value of -1 and sets the x25_errno global variable to one of the error codes shown below.
On failure, the x25_errno global variable is set to one of the following value:
If the x25_errno global variable is set to the X25SYSERR value, the errno global variable is set to one of the following values:
See the example program pvcxmit for a code sample that resets a call.
