=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_s_connect() returns the connect BIO method. This is a wrapper
|
||||
round the platform's TCP/IP socket connection routines.
|
||||
|
||||
Using connect BIOs TCP/IP connections can be made and data
|
||||
transferred using only BIO routines. In this way any platform
|
||||
specific operations are hidden by the BIO abstraction.
|
||||
|
||||
Read and write operations on a connect BIO will perform I/O
|
||||
on the underlying connection. If no connection is established
|
||||
and the port and hostname (see below) is set up properly then
|
||||
a connection is established first.
|
||||
|
||||
Connect BIOs support BIO_puts() but not BIO_gets().
|
||||
|
||||
If the close flag is set on a connect BIO then any active
|
||||
connection is shutdown and the socket closed when the BIO
|
||||
is freed.
|
||||
|
||||
Calling BIO_reset() on a connect BIO will close any active
|
||||
connection and reset the BIO into a state where it can connect
|
||||
to the same host again.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_get_fd() places the underlying socket in B<c> if it is not NULL,
|
||||
it also returns the socket . If B<c> is not NULL it should be of
|
||||
type (int *).
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_set_conn_hostname() uses the string B<name> to set the hostname
|
||||
The hostname can be an IP address. The hostname can also include the
|
||||
port in the form hostname:port . It is also acceptable to use the
|
||||
form "hostname/any/other/path" or "hostname:port/any/other/path".
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_set_conn_port() sets the port to B<port>. B<port> can be the
|
||||
numerical form or a string such as "http". A string will be looked
|
||||
up first using getservbyname() on the host platform but if that
|
||||
fails a standard table of port names will be used. Currently the
|
||||
list is http, telnet, socks, https, ssl, ftp, gopher and wais.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_set_conn_ip() sets the IP address to B<ip> using binary form,
|
||||
that is four bytes specifying the IP address in big endian form.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_set_conn_int_port() sets the port using B<port>. B<port> should
|
||||
be of type (int *).
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_get_conn_hostname() returns the hostname of the connect BIO or
|
||||
NULL if the BIO is initialised but no hostname is set.
|
||||
This return value is an internal pointer which should not be modified.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_get_conn_port() returns the port as a string.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_get_conn_ip() returns the IP address in binary form.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_get_conn_int_port() returns the host name as an int.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_set_nbio() sets the non blocking I/O flag to B<n>. If B<n> is
|
||||
zero then blocking I/O is set. If B<n> is 1 then non blocking I/O
|
||||
is set.
|
||||
|
||||
BIO_do_connect() attempts to connect the supplied BIO. It returns 1
|
||||
if the connection was established successfully. A zero or negative
|
||||
value is returned if the connection could not be established, the
|
||||
call BIO_should_retry() should be used for non blocking connect BIOs
|
||||
to determine if the call should be retried.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
If blocking I/O is set then a non positive return value from any
|
||||
I/O call is caused by an error condition, although a zero return
|
||||
will normally mean that the connection was closed.
|
||||
|
||||
If the port name is supplied as part of the host name then this will
|
||||
override any value set with BIO_set_conn_port().
|
||||
|
||||
The values returned by BIO_get_conn_hostname(), BIO_get_conn_port(),
|
||||
BIO_get_conn_ip() and BIO_get_conn_int_port() are updated when a
|
||||
connection attempt is made. Before any connection attempt the values
|
||||
returned are those set by the application itself.
|
||||
|
||||
Applications do not have to call BIO_do_connect() but can do so to
|
||||
separate the connection process from other I/O processing.
|
||||
|
||||
If non blocking I/O is set then retries will be requested as appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
It addition to BIO_should_read() and BIO_should_write() it is also
|
||||
possible for BIO_should_io_special() to be true during the initial
|
||||
connection process with the reason BIO_RR_CONNECT. If this is returned
|
||||
then this is an indication that a connection attempt would block,
|
||||
the application should then take appropiate action to wait until
|
||||
the underlying socket has connected and retry the call.

||||

||||
