TcpClient::Connect Method (String^, Int32)
Connects the client to the specified port on the specified host.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
Parameters
- hostname
-
Type:
System::String^
The DNS name of the remote host to which you intend to connect.
- port
-
Type:
System::Int32
The port number of the remote host to which you intend to connect.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentNullException | The hostname parameter is null. |
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | |
| SocketException | An error occurred when accessing the socket. See the Remarks section for more information. |
| ObjectDisposedException | TcpClient is closed. |
Call this method to establish a synchronous remote host connection to the specified host name and port number. The Connect method will block until it either connects or fails. After connecting with the remote host, use the GetStream method to obtain the underlying NetworkStream. Use this NetworkStream to send and receive data.
If IPv6 is enabled and the Connect(String^, Int32) method is called to connect to a host that resolves to both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses, the connection to the IPv6 address will be attempted first before the IPv4 address. This may have the effect of delaying the time to establish the connection if the host is not listening on the IPv6 address.
