DESCRIPTION¶
When the driver created a new connection (either by accepting it or by creating it with net_connect(E)) and bound it to an object, it then calls logon(A) in that object.
The method should return 0 on failure, and everything else on success.
If the driver attempted to create a connection in the background and failed, it will call logon(-1) in the intended object to inform the mudlib about the failure.
If the master attempted a secure connection in connect(M) and did not set an explicit TLS callback, the call to logon() won’t happen until the TLS handshake is complete. If the master set a TLS callback, that will be executed in place of logon().
HISTORY¶
- changed (3.2.10) – added the extended meaning for
net_connect(E). - changed (3.2.13/3.3.713) – streamlined the handling of secure connections during logon.
