socketconnect – make a connection on a socket

BEE Script:      socketconnect socketObj address=string port=integer;

 

BEE Tag:      <beesocketconnect socketObj address=string port=integer>

 

The "socketconnect" command initiates a connection to a remote (server) address and port via the socket.  This command is usually used by a client process.

Parameters

socket (the socketObj) is the name of the socket to connect.

address is the address that the socket is making connection to.  For AF_INET domain, it is an IP address, or a host name resolvable to an IP via the DNS (Domain Name Service).

port is a service identifier.  e.g. SMTP (port 25) for e-mail and HTTP (port 80) for the web.  It may be specified as a service name recognisable by the remote system.
