          This function attempts to connect a socket to one of a sequence of endpoints.
          It does this by repeated calls to the socket's <code class="computeroutput">connect</code> member
          function, once for each endpoint in the sequence, until a connection is
          successfully established.

                A function object that is called prior to each connection attempt.
                The signature of the function object must be:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting">bool connect_condition(
    const boost::system::error_code&amp; ec,
    const typename Protocol::endpoint&amp; next);
</pre>
<p>
                The <code class="computeroutput">ec</code> parameter contains the result from the most recent
                connect operation. Before the first connection attempt, <code class="computeroutput">ec</code>
                is always set to indicate success. The <code class="computeroutput">next</code> parameter
                is the next endpoint to be tried. The function object should return
                true if the next endpoint should be tried, and false if it should
                be skipped.
              </p>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term">ec</span></dt>
<dd><p>
                Set to indicate what error occurred, if any. If the sequence is empty,
                set to <code class="computeroutput">boost::asio::error::not_found</code>. Otherwise, contains
                the error from the last connection attempt.

          The following connect condition function object can be used to output information
          about the individual connection attempts:
        </p>
<pre class="programlisting">struct my_connect_condition
{
  bool operator()(
      const boost::system::error_code&amp; ec,
      const::tcp::endpoint&amp; next)

    std::cout &lt;&lt; "Trying: " &lt;&lt; next &lt;&lt; std::endl;
    return true;
  }
};
</pre>
<p>
          It would be used with the <code class="computeroutput">boost::asio::connect</code> function as
          follows:
        </p>
<pre class="programlisting">tcp::resolver r(io_context);
tcp::resolver::query q("host", "service");
tcp::resolver::results_type e = r.resolve(q);
tcp::socket s(io_context);

tcp::resolver::results_type::iterator i = boost::asio::connect(
    s, e.begin(), e.end(), my_connect_condition());
if (ec)
