elapses. Use this function after issuing a call

\wxheading{Parameters}
\wxheading{Return value}
-WaitOnConnect returns TRUE if the connection request completes. This
+WaitOnConnect returns true if the connection request completes. This
does not necessarily mean that the connection was successfully established;
it might also happen that the connection was refused by the peer. Use
\helpref{IsConnected}{wxsocketbaseisconnected} to distinguish between
these two situations.
-If the timeout elapses, WaitOnConnect returns FALSE.
+If the timeout elapses, WaitOnConnect returns false.
These semantics allow code like this:
\begin{verbatim}
// Issue the connection request
-client->Connect(addr, FALSE);
+client->Connect(addr, false);
// Wait until the request completes or until we decide to give up
-bool waitmore = TRUE;
+bool waitmore = true;
