<desc>
<p>Send a megaco message. </p>
<p>If the function returns <c><![CDATA[{cancel, Reason}]]></c>,
this means the transport module decided not to send the message.
This is <em>not</em> an error. No error messages will be issued
and no error counters incremented.
What actions this will result in depends on what kind of
message was sent.
</p>
<p>In the case of requests, megaco will cancel the message in much
the same way as if <c><![CDATA[megaco:cancel]]></c> had been called
(after a successfull send). The information will be propagated
back to the user differently depending on how the request(s) where
issued: For requests issued using
<seealso marker="megaco#call">megaco:call</seealso>, the info
will be delivered in the return value. For requests issued
using <c><![CDATA[megaco:cast]]></c> the info will be delivered
via a call to the callback function
<seealso marker="megaco_user#trans_reply">handle_trans_reply</seealso>. </p>
<p>In the case of reply, megaco will cancel the reply and information
of this will be returned to the user via a call to the
callback function
<seealso marker="megaco_user#trans_ack">handle_trans_ack</seealso>. </p>
<p>The function <c>send_message/3</c> will only be called if the
<seealso marker="megaco#ui_resend_indication">resend_indication</seealso>
config option has been set to the value <c>flag</c>. The third
argument, <c>Resend</c> then indicates if the message send is
a resend or not. </p>

<v>Reason = term()</v>
<v>Error = term()</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>Re-send a megaco message. </p>
<p>Note that this function will only be called if the user has set the
<seealso marker="megaco#ui_resend_indication">resend_indication</seealso>
config option to <c><![CDATA[true]]></c><em>and</em> it is in fact a message
resend. If not <em>both</em> of these condition's are meet,
<c><![CDATA[send_message]]></c> will be called. </p>
<p>If the function returns <c><![CDATA[{cancel, Reason}]]></c>, this means the
transport module decided not to send the message.
This is <em>not</em> an error. No error messages will be issued
and no error counters incremented.
