tt_message_arg_xval - retrieve and deserialize the data from a message
argument
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]

void **value);
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The tt_message_arg_xval function retrieves and deserializes the data
from a message argument. This function uses an XDR routine that is
supplied by the client.
The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this
operation. The n argument is the number of the argument to be
returned. The first argument is numbered zero. The xdr_proc argument
points to the XDR procedure to be used to deserialize the data in the
nth argument into newly allocated storage, the address of which will
be stored in the pointer whose address is value.
The value argument is the data to be deserialized.

the status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

storage allocated is not allocated from the ToolTalk allocation stack.
The application should use the xdr_free(3) call to free this storage.
