TSHttpConnect
=============
Allows the plugin to initiate an http connection.
Synopsis
--------
`#include <ts/ts.h>`
.. c:function:: TSVConn TSHttpConnect(sockaddr const *addr)
Description
-----------
The :c:type:`TSVConn` the plugin receives as the result of successful
operates identically to one created through :c:type:`TSNetConnect`.
Aside from allowing the plugin to set the client ip and port for
logging, the functionality of :c:func:`TSHttpConnect` is identical to
connecting to localhost on the proxy port with :c:func:`TSNetConnect`.
:c:func:`TSHttpConnect` is more efficient than :c:func:`TSNetConnect`
to localhost since it avoids the overhead of passing the data through
the operating system.
