# nng_sleep_aio(3) Manual Page

## NAME

nng_sleep_aio - sleep asynchronously

## SYNOPSIS

    #include <nng/nng.h>

    void nng_sleep_aio(nng_duration msec, nng_aio *aio);

## DESCRIPTION

The `nng_sleep_aio()` function provides an asynchronous delay mechanism, causing the callback for aio to be executed after msec milliseconds. If the sleep finishes completely, the result will always be zero.

| If a timeout is set on aio using `nng_aio_set_timeout()`, and it is shorter than msec, then the sleep will wake up early, with a result code of `NNG_ETIMEDOUT`.

## RETURN VALUES

None.

## ERRORS

None.
