DESCRIPTION¶
Return a login object that the requested connection should be bound to.
At call time, the connection is bound to the master object, and will be re-bound to the returned object.
The lfun logon(A) will be applied to the login object after binding the connection to it. That lfun has to return != 0 to indicate success.
If connect(M) initiates a secure connection without setting a callback, and the connection is still handshaking at the time connect(M) returns, the driver will delay the call to logon(A) until the handshake either succeeds or fails.
HISTORY¶
- changed (3.2.13/3.3.713) – streamlined the handling of secure connections during logon.
