Syntax: int connect(int s, struct sockaddr *name, int namelen);
Header: NetLib - sys/socket.h
Sockets - socklib.h
UnixLib - sys/socket.h
Returns: 0 for success, EOF if failed
This call initiates a connection from the specified socket to a given address on another host.
When used on a raw or datagram socket, this will simply fix the remote address for future calls to Socket_Send or send(), and this remote address can be changed by calling this routine again.
For Stream sockets, the stack will attempt to make a connection to the specified address, and will block until the connection is achieved or the attempt fails. If the socket has been marked non-blocking it will instead return immediately with the error EINPROGRESS and will continue with the connection attempt on its own.
