       int       status (in)      Integer HTTP status code.

DESCRIPTION

       These  routines  manage  the  HTTP  response  code  sent  to the client in a later call to
       Ns_ConnFlush or Ns_ConnFlushDirect.  Higher  level  routines  such  as  the  Ns_ConnReturn
       functions  normally call these routines automatically using standard HTTP status codes and
       the Ns_ConnQueueHeaders routine can be used to set the status code for  lower  level  code
       which bypasses Ns_ConnFlush.

       int Ns_ConnGetStatus(conn)
              Return the current HTTP status to be sent.

       int Ns_ConnSetStatus(conn, status)
              Set  the status code to be sent in the response, for example, 200 for a normal "OK"
              response.  A later  call  to  Ns_ConnFlush  will  construct  the  appropriate  HTTP
              response including the given status with the cooresponding string status code.

EXAMPLES

       The  following  example  demonstrates  setting  an  odd  status code followed by a call to
       Ns_ConnFlushDirect to send some data:

                Ns_ConnSetStatus(conn, 600);
                Ns_ConnSetType(conn, "text/plain");
                Ns_ConnFlushDirect(conn, "hello", 5, 0);

       The following should provide similar results:

                Ns_ConnSetRequiredHeaders(conn, "text/plain", 5);
                Ns_ConnQueueHeaders(conn, 600);
                Ns_ConnPuts(conn, "hello");
                Ns_ConnClose(conn);
