.SH "Detailed Description"
.PP 
Please note: classes serverrec and userrec both inherit from class connection.Definition at line 161 of file connection.h.
.SH "Constructor & Destructor Documentation"
.PP 
.SS "connection::connection ()"
.PP
Default constructor.
.SH "Member Function Documentation"
.PP 
.SS "bool connection::AddIncoming (int fd, char * targethost, int sourceport)"
.PP
Add an incoming connection to the connection pool.(reserved for core use)
.SS "bool connection::BeginLink (char * targethost, int port, char * password, char * servername, int myport)"
.PP
Begin an outbound link to another ircd at targethost.
.SS "bool connection::CreateListener (char * host, int p)"
.PP
Create a listening socket on 'host' using port number 'p'.
.SS "\fBircd_connector\fP* connection::FindHost (std::string host)"
.PP
Find the \fBircd_connector\fP oject related to a certain servername given in 'host'.
.SS "long connection::GenKey ()"
.PP
This function is deprecated and may be removed in a later alpha/beta.
.SS "bool connection::MeshCookie (char * targethost, int port, long cookie, char * servername)"
.PP
Begin an outbound mesh link to another ircd on a network you are already an authenticated member of.
.SS "bool connection::RecvPacket (std::deque< std::string > & messages, char * host)"
.PP
Returns the next available packet and returns true if data is available.Writes the servername the data came from to 'host'. If no data is available this function returns false. This function will automatically close broken links and reroute pathways, generating split messages on the network.
.SS "bool connection::SendPacket (char * message, const char * host)"
.PP
Send a message to a server by name, if the server is unavailable directly route the packet via another server If the server still cannot be reached after attempting to route the message remotely, returns false.
.SS "void connection::TerminateLink (char * targethost)"
.PP
Terminate a link to 'targethost' by calling the \fBircd_connector::CloseConnection\fP method.
