Opens a persistent connection to a Hyperwave server. Each of the arguments should be a quoted string, except for the port number. The <TT CLASS="parameter" ><I >username</I ></TT > and <TT CLASS="parameter" ><I >password</I ></TT > arguments are optional and can be left out. In such a case no identification with the server will be done. It is similar to identify as user anonymous. This function returns a connection index that is needed by other Hyperwave functions. You can have multiple persistent connections open at once.</P ><P > See also <B CLASS="function" >hw_Connect()</B >.</P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="function.hw-outputdocument.html" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="manual.html" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="function.hw-pipedocument.html" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >hw_OutputDocument</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="ref.hyperwave.html" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >hw_PipeDocument</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
