gnutls_heartbeat_ping(3)	     gnutls		gnutls_heartbeat_ping(3)

NAME
     gnutls_heartbeat_ping - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

     int  gnutls_heartbeat_ping(gnutls_session_t  session, size_t data_size, un-
     signed int max_tries, unsigned int flags);

ARGUMENTS
     gnutls_session_t session
		 is a gnutls_session_t type.

     size_t data_size
		 is the length of the ping payload.

     unsigned int max_tries
		 if flags is GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT then this sets the number  of
		 retransmissions. Use zero for indefinite (until timeout).

     unsigned int flags
		 if  GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT then wait for pong or timeout instead
		 of returning immediately.

DESCRIPTION
     This function  sends  a  ping  to	the  peer.  If	the   flags  is  set  to
     GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT then it waits for a reply from the peer.

     Note  that  it  is  highly  recommended  to use this function with the flag
     GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT, or you need to handle retransmissions  and	timeouts
     manually.

     The total TLS data transmitted as part of the ping message are given by the
     following formula: MAX(16,  data_size )+gnutls_record_overhead_size()+3.

RETURNS
     GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS on success, otherwise a negative error code.

SINCE
     3.1.2
