<h2 id="_description">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The <code>nng_dialer_start()</code> function starts the dialer <em>d</em>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This causes the dialer to start connecting to the address with which it was
created.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When a connection is established, it results in a pipe being created,
which will be attached to the dialer&#8217;s socket.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Normally, the first attempt to connect to the dialer&#8217;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.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>However, if the special value <code>NNG_FLAG_NONBLOCK</code> is
supplied in <em>flags</em>, then the connection attempt is made asynchronously.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Furthermore, if the connection was closed for a synchronously dialed
connection, the dialer will still attempt to redial asynchronously.</p>
</div>

While <code>NNG_FLAG_NONBLOCK</code> can help an application be more resilient,
it also generally makes diagnosing failures somewhat more difficult.
