boost::asio::connect
Establishes a socket connection by trying each endpoint in a sequence.
Synopsis
Declared in <boost/asio/connect.hpp>
template<
typename Protocol,
typename Executor,
typename Iterator>
Iterator
connect(
basic_socket<Protocol, Executor>& s,
Iterator begin,
Iterator end,
boost::system::error_code& ec);
Description
This function attempts to connect a socket to one of a sequence of endpoints. It does this by repeated calls to the socket's connect member function, once for each endpoint in the sequence, until a connection is successfully established.
Example
tcp::resolver r(my_context);
tcp::resolver::query q("host", "service");
tcp::resolver::results_type e = r.resolve(q);
tcp::socket s(my_context);
boost::system::error_code ec;
boost::asio::connect(s, e.begin(), e.end(), ec);
if (ec)
{
// An error occurred.
}
Return Value
On success, an iterator denoting the successfully connected endpoint. Otherwise, the end iterator.
Parameters
Name |
Description |
s |
The socket to be connected. If the socket is already open, it will be closed. |
begin |
An iterator pointing to the start of a sequence of endpoints. |
end |
An iterator pointing to the end of a sequence of endpoints. |
ec |
Set to indicate what error occurred, if any. If the sequence is empty, set to boost::asio::error::not_found. Otherwise, contains the error from the last connection attempt. |
