gSocketConnect(object, address, cancellable = NULL, .errwarn = TRUE)
object
GSocket
.address
GSocketAddress
specifying the remote address.cancellable
GCancellable
or NULL
TRUE
if connected, FALSE
on error.error
GError
for error reporting, or NULL
to ignore.address
. For a connection-less socket it sets
the default address for gSocketSend
and discards all incoming datagrams
from other sources.
Generally connection oriented sockets can only connect once, but
connection-less sockets can connect multiple times to change the
default address.
If the connect call needs to do network I/O it will block, unless
non-blocking I/O is enabled. Then G_IO_ERROR_PENDING
is returned
and the user can be notified of the connection finishing by waiting
for the G_IO_OUT condition. The result of the connection can then be
checked with gSocketCheckConnectResult
.
