public DOFOperationConnect beginConnect(
	int timeout,
	DOFConnectionConnectOperationListener operationListener,
	Object context
)

Parameters

timeout
Type: SystemInt32
Maximum time to wait, in milliseconds, for the connection to be established before calling the listener's complete() method. Note, however, that the connection may still occur if the underlying transport cannot cancel the connection request. Must be >= 0. Zero is allowed, in which case the listener's complete() is immediately called indicating the current state.
operationListener
Type: org.opendof.core.oalDOFConnectionConnectOperationListener
An associated completion listener. May be null.
context
Type: SystemObject
Context data associated with the operation. The context may be retrieved with operation.getContext().

Return Value

Type: DOFOperationConnect
The new operation, or null if there is a related server that won't start or a related connection that won't open.
Remarks
Open a connection, waiting up to timeout for the connection to be established. However, control is returned to the caller while the connection is established. The call may also establish an ConnectOperationListener that will be called with information about the completion of the routine.

We recommend 30 seconds for Type.POINT connections. Will also start any related server and open any related connection.
