| Connections
|
|
|
| The Conn object allows input buffering, and maintenance of
some admin-type data.

|
|
| The Connection newtype is a wrapper that allows us to make
connections an instance of the StreamIn/Out classes, without ghc extensions.
While this looks sort of like a generic reference to the transport
layer it is actually TCP specific, which can be seen in the
implementation of the 'Stream Connection' instance.

|
| Open a connection to port 80 on a remote host.
|
|
|
This function establishes a connection to a remote
host, it uses getHostByName which interrogates the
DNS system, hence may trigger a network connection.
Add a persistant option? Current persistant is default.
Use Result type for synchronous exception reporting?
|
|
|
| Checks both that the underlying Socket is connected
and that the connection peer matches the given
host name (which is recorded locally).
