## nn_connect
Connect to remote peer (compatible API).
### Synopsis
```c
#include <nanomsg/nn.h>
int nn_connect(int sock, const char *url)
```
### Description
The `nn_connect` function arranges for the socket _sock_ to initiate connection to a peer at the address specified by _url_.
An identifier for this socket's association with the _url_ is returned to the caller on success.
This identifier can be used with xref:nn_shutdown.adoc[`nn_shutdown`] to remove the association later.
NOTE: The connect operation is performed asynchronously, and may not have completed before this function returns control to the caller.
IMPORTANT: Only transports supported by legacy _libnanomsg_ may be used with this function.
In particular, only the schemes `tcp://`, `ipc://`, `inproc://`, and `ws://` are supported with this function.
### Return Values
This function returns a positive identifier success, and -1 on error.
### Errors
[horizontal]
`ECONNREFUSED`:: The connection attempt was refused.
`EBADF`:: The socket _sock_ is not open.
`EINVAL`:: An invalid _url_ was supplied.
