NAME

       TSHttpConnect - allows the plugin to initiate an http connection

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ts/ts.h>

       TSVConn TSHttpConnect(sockaddr const *addr)

DESCRIPTION

       The  TSVConn  the plugin receives as the result of successful operates identically to one created through
       TSNetConnect.  Aside from  allowing  the  plugin  to  set  the  client  ip  and  port  for  logging,  the
       functionality  of  TSHttpConnect()  is  identical  to  connecting  to  localhost  on  the proxy port with
       TSNetConnect().  TSHttpConnect() is more efficient than TSNetConnect() to localhost since it  avoids  the
       overhead of passing the data through the operating system.
