## Detailed Description

Specialization of `Connection` for TCP/IP.

This class just simplifies the connection creation interface of `Connection`. It does not add new functionality.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

mysqlpp::TCPConnection::TCPConnection | ( | const char * | addr,
|  | const char * | db = `0`,
|  | const char * | user = `0`,
|  | const char * | password = `0`
| ) |  |
| inline

Create object and connect to database server over TCP/IP in one step.

Parameters

  addr | TCP/IP address of server, in either dotted quad form or as a host or domain name; may be followed by a colon and a port number or service name to override default port
  db | name of database to use
  user | user name to log in under, or 0 to use the user name the program is running under
  password | password to use when logging in

BEWARE: These parameters are not in the same order as those in the corresponding constructor for Connection. This is a feature, not a bug. :)

mysqlpp::TCPConnection::TCPConnection | ( | const TCPConnection & | other | ) |
| inline

Establish a new connection using the same parameters as an existing connection.

Parameters

  other | pre-existing connection to clone

## Member Function Documentation

bool mysqlpp::TCPConnection::connect | ( | const char * | addr = `0`,
|  | const char * | db = `0`,
|  | const char * | user = `0`,
|  | const char * | password = `0`
| ) |  |

Connect to database after object is created.

It's better to use the connect-on-create constructor if you can. See its documentation for the meaning of these parameters.

If you call this method on an object that is already connected to a database server, the previous connection is dropped and a new connection is established.

bool mysqlpp::TCPConnection::parse_address | ( | std::string & | addr,
|  | unsigned int & | port,
|  | std::string & | error
| ) |  |
| static

Break the given TCP/IP address up into a separate address and port form.

Does some sanity checking on the address. Only intended to try and prevent library misuse, not ensure that the address can actually be used to contact a server.

It understands the following forms:

    - 1.2.3.4

- a.b.com:89
- d.e.fr:mysvcname

It also understands IPv6 addresses, but to avoid confusion between the colons they use and the colon separating the address part from the service/port part, they must be in RFC 2732 form. Example: ``[2010:836B:4179::836B:4179]:1234

Parameters

  addr | the address and optional port/service combo to check on input, and the verified address on successful return
  port | the port number (resolved from the service name if necessary) on successful return
  error | on false return, reason for failure is placed here

Returns
  false if address fails to pass sanity checks
