This function is deprecated in favor of sendUntimedData.

Requirements​

Network interface  
May implement this function during the deprecation period. Interfaces must implement at least one of sendInitData() and sendUntimedData(). In SST 14, interfaces will be required to implement sendUntimedData() and sendInitData() will be removed.

Endpoint  
May optionally use this function during init() and complete() to send events over the network. Must not call this function during init() until isNetworkInitialized() returns true.

Parameters​

Parameters​

  • req (Request*) A Request to send
  • returns none
