NAME
     tt_message_iarg_add - add a new argument to a message object

SYNOPSIS
     #include <Tt/tt_c.h>

     Tt_status tt_message_iarg_add(Tt_message m,
				   Tt_mode n,
				   const char *vtype,
				   int value);

DESCRIPTION
     The tt_message_iarg_add() function	adds a new argument to	a
     message object and	sets the value to a given integer.

     Add all arguments before the message  is  sent.   To  change
     existing  argument	 values,  the  application  must use only
     modes TT_OUT or TT_INOUT.

     Adding arguments when replying to a message  produces  unde-
     fined results.

     The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved
     in	 this  operation.   The	n argument specifies who (sender,
     handler, observers) writes	and  reads  a  message	argument.
     The following modes are defined:

	TT_IN	The argument is	written	by the sender and read by
		the handler and	any observers.

	TT_OUT
		The argument is	written	by the handler	and  read
		by the sender and any reply observers.

	TT_INOUT
		The argument is	written	by  the	 sender	 and  the
		handler	and read by all.

     The vtype argument	describes the type of argument data being
     added.  The value argument	is the value to	be added.

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion, the tt_message_iarg_add()  func-
     tion  returns the status of the operation as one of the fol-
     lowing Tt_status values:

	TT_OK	The operation completed	successfully.

	TT_ERR_MODE
		The specified Tt_mode is invalid.

	TT_ERR_NOMP
		The ttsession(1) process is not	running	 and  the
