== NAME
nng_dialer_start - start dialer
== SYNOPSIS
[source, c]
-----------
#include <nng/nng.h>
int nng_dialer_start(nng_dialer d, int flags);
-----------
== DESCRIPTION
The `nng_dialer_start()` function starts the dialer _d_.
This causes the dialer to start connecting to the address with which it was
created.
When a connection is established, it results in a pipe being created,
which will be attached to the dialer's socket.
Normally, the first attempt to connect to the dialer's address is done
synchronously, including any necessary name resolution. As a result,
a failure, such as if the connection is refused, will be returned
immediately, and no further action will be taken.
However, if the special value `NNG_FLAG_NONBLOCK` is
supplied in _flags_, then the connection attempt is made asynchronously.
Furthermore, if the connection was closed for a synchronously dialed
connection, the dialer will still attempt to redial asynchronously.
TIP: While `NNG_FLAG_NONBLOCK` can help an application be more resilient,
it also generally makes diagnosing failures somewhat more difficult.
Once a dialer has started, it is generally not possible to change
it's configuration.
== RETURN VALUES
This function returns 0 on success, and non-zero otherwise.
== ERRORS
`NNG_EADDRINVAL`:: An invalid _url_ was specified.
`NNG_ECLOSED`:: The socket _s_ is not open.
`NNG_ECONNREFUSED`:: The remote peer refused the connection.
`NNG_ECONNRESET`:: The remote peer reset the connection.
`NNG_EINVAL`:: An invalid set of _flags_ was specified.
`NNG_ENOMEM`:: Insufficient memory is available.
`NNG_EPEERAUTH`:: Authentication or authorization failure.
`NNG_EPROTO`:: A protocol error occurred.
`NNG_ESTATE`:: The dialer _d_ is already started.
`NNG_EUNREACHABLE`:: The remote address is not reachable.
