/* * call-seq: * socket.connect(server_sockaddr) => 0 * * Requests a connection to be made on the given +server_sockaddr+.

Or a nonblocking connect call is * in progress on the +socket+. * * Errno::EALREADY - see Errno::EINVAL * * Errno::EADDRNOTAVAIL - the remote address is not a valid address, such as * ADDR_ANY TODO check ADDRANY TO INADDR_ANY * * Errno::EAFNOSUPPORT - addresses in the specified family cannot be used with * with this +socket+ * * Errno::ECONNREFUSED - the target _sockaddr_ was not listening for connections * refused the connection request * * Errno::EFAULT - the socket's internal address or address length parameter * is too small or is not a valid part of the user space address * * Errno::EINVAL - the +socket+ is a listening socket * * Errno::EISCONN - the +socket+ is already connected * * Errno::ENETUNREACH - the network cannot be reached from this host at this time * * Errno::EHOSTUNREACH - no route to the network is present * * Errno::ENOBUFS - no buffer space is available * * Errno::ENOTSOCK - the +socket+ argument does not refer to a socket * * Errno::ETIMEDOUT - the attempt to connect time out before a connection * was made. * * Errno::EWOULDBLOCK - the socket is marked as nonblocking and the * connection cannot be completed immediately * * Errno::EACCES - the attempt to connect the datagram socket to the * broadcast address failed * * === See * * connect manual pages on unix-based systems * * connect function in Microsoft's Winsock functions reference */ static VALUE sock_connect(sock, addr) VALUE sock, addr; { OpenFile *fptr; int fd; StringValue(addr); addr = rb_str_new4(addr); GetOpenFile(sock, fptr); fd = fileno(fptr->f); if (ruby_connect(fd, (struct sockaddr*)RSTRING(addr)->ptr, RSTRING(addr)->len, 0) < 0) { rb_sys_fail("connect(2)"); } return INT2FIX(0); }
