StreamConnect (Function)

In french: FluxConnecte

Connects a stream (and the associated control) to a specific address.

Remark: This function is equivalent to the Address property.

Example

// Specify the name of the caller
CONF_Conference1.Identifier = UserName
// Connect the Conference control
StreamConnect(CONF_Conference1, RecipientAddress)
// equivalent to:
// CONF_Conference1.Address = RecipientAddress

Syntax

<Result> = StreamConnect(<Conference control> , <Address>)

<Result>: Boolean

True if the connection was established,
False otherwise. To get more details on the error, use ErrorInfo.

<Conference control>: Control name or character string

Name of Conference control to associate with the specified address.

<Address>: Character string

Address of the correspondent. This address can be:
An IP address in XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX format (125.5.110.100 for example).
A server name (pop3.serveur.fr for example). This syntax is recommended.
An empty string (""). In this case, the address of the current computer is used (to simplify the tests of an application).

Remarks

Disconnecting a stream

When a stream is disconnected (by the caller or the called), the "End of connection" event is automatically run.
