tcp_connector

---

The tcp_connector represents the traditional client side of a connection. It will attempt to connect to a listening host. Deconstruction or moving the tcp_connector while in use results in undefined behavior.

Example

your_class::run_connector()
{
    tcp_connector connector(engine_);

    /* Fill out posix struct for host details... */
    struct addrinfo  hints;
    struct addrinfo* addr;

    memset(&hints, 0, sizeof(hints));
    hints.ai_family   = AF_INET;
    hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_STREAM;
    auto success      = getaddrinfo("localhost", "8080", &hints, &addr);

    if (success)
    {
        for (auto current = addr; (bool) addr; addr = addr->ai_next)
        {

            std::optional<tcp_stream> stream_opt = co_await connector_.connect(
                (struct sockaddr_storage*) current->ai_addr,
                sizeof(*current->ai_addr));

            if (stream_opt) {
                std::cout << "Got a connection\n";
                break;
            }
            else
            {
                std::cout << "Got a error" << connector_.last_error() << "\n";
            }
        }

        freeaddrinfo(addr);
    }
}
