Connection timeout about bluesocket HOT 6 CLOSED

I think I've found the problem. Hope to have a fix posted over the weekend. I've got the code complete but haven't finished testing. Will advise... With this fix, the new connect API will look like this:

public func connect(to host: String, port: Int32, timeout: UInt = 0) throws

The timeout parameter is ignored if blocking is not turned off for the Socket.

There's a bit more to it than that. I'm looking at it...

Decided to enhance the above a bit more. You won't have to set the Socket into non-blocking mode to use the timeout. You just have to supply a timeout value greater than zero. Here's the new documentation for the connect API from the README.md:

• connect(to host: String, port: Int32, timeout: UInt = 0) - This API allows you to connect to a server based on the hostname and port you provide. Note: an exception will be thrown by this function if the value of port is not in the range 1-65535. Optionally, you can set timeout to the number of milliseconds to wait for the connect. Note: If the socket is in blocking mode it will be changed to non-blocking mode temporarily if a timeout greater than zero (0) is provided. The returned socket will be set back to its original setting (blocking or non-blocking).

This new API is available in version 0.12.60.

@mna have u tried this...can you help me out with is case... i need fix a timeout for connect.
#76
can you pls check the above issue and help me out....

from bluesocket.

Yeah I tried it out and commented on #76, so it looks like a connection timeout cannot be implemented with the current API (without dropping to lower-level socket calls).

Going to close this for now. Feel free to re-open if you run into any issues. Thanks.
