◆ connect() [1/3]

void xtd::net::sockets::tcp_client::connect ( const xtd::net::ip_end_point & remote_end_point )

Connects the client to a remote TCP host using the specified remote network endpoint.

Parameters

remote_end_point The xtd::net::ip_end_point to which you intend to connect.

Exceptions

xtd::net::sockets::socket_exception	An error occurred when accessing the socket.
xtd::object_closed_exception	The xtd::net::sockets::socket has been closed.

Remarks: Call this method to establish a synchronous remote host connection to the specified xtd::net::ip_end_point. Before you call xtd::net::sockets::tcp_client::connect you must create an instance of the xtd::net::ip_end_point class using an IP address and a port number. Use this xtd::net::ip_end_point as the remote_end_point parameter. The xtd::net::sockets::tcp_client::connect method will block until it either connects or fails. After connecting with the remote host, use the xtd::net::sockets::tcp_client::get_stream method to obtain the underlying xtd::net::sockets::network_stream. Use this xtd::net::sockets::network_stream to send and receive data.

Note: If you receive a xtd::net::sockets::socket_exception, use the xtd::net::sockets::socket_exception::error_code property to obtain the specific error code. After you have obtained this code, refer to the Windows Sockets version 2 API error code documentation in the MSDN library for a detailed description of the error.
