mongoc_socket_connect (3) Linux Manual Page

mongoc_socket_connect() – This function is a wrapper around the BSD socket connect() interface. It provides better portability between UNIX-like and Microsoft Windows platforms.

Synopsis

int
mongoc_socket_connect (mongoc_socket_t *sock,
 const struct sockaddr *addr,
 socklen_t addrlen,
 int64_t expire_at);

Parameters

sock

A mongoc_socket_t \&.

addr

A struct sockaddr.

addrlen

A socklen_t.

expire_at

A int64_t containing the absolute timeout using the monotonic clock.

Description

This function is a wrapper around the BSD socket connect(3) interface. It provides better portability between UNIX-like and Microsoft Windows platforms.

This function performs a socket connection but will fail if @expire_at has been reached by the monotonic clock. Keep in mind that this is an absolute timeout in milliseconds. You should add your desired timeout to bson_get_monotonic_time(3) \&.

Returns

0 if successful, -1 on failure and errno is set.
