Connected

Declaration

function Connected: Boolean;

Description

Returns the most recent connected status, but does not retest the connection. For example, if the connection was made (by setting Active to True) this would return True. Later, if the connection were lost, this would still return True. The Ping method should be used in cases where it is critical to verify the connection is still live. However, this check is much quicker than calling Ping for general purpose usage.

Delphi Example

if ApolloConnection1.Connected then

ShowMessage( 'Connection OK' )

else

ShowMessage( 'Connection FAILED' );
