[section:connect_props CONNECT properties]
The last field in the Variable header of __CONNECT__ packet is a set of Properties.
A set contains a Property Length followed by the Properties.
A Property consists of an Identifier and a value.
This section lists all possible __CONNECT__ Properties and describes their usage:
[table:connect_props CONNECT properties
[[Identifier] [Value type] [Description]]
[[session_expiry_interval] [`int32_t`] [Represents the Session Expiry Internal in seconds.]]
[[receive_maximum] [`int16_t`] [The maximum number of QoS 1 and QoS 2 publications that the Client is willing to process concurrently.]]
[[maximum_packet_size] [`int32_t`] [The maximum __PACKET_SIZE__ in bytes as defined by the specification that the Client is willing to process.]]
[[topic_alias_maximum] [`uint16_t`] [The highest value that the Client will accept as a Topic Alias sent by the Server.]]
[[request_response_information] [`uint8_t`] [The value of 0 signals that the Server MUST NOT return Response Information in __CONNACK__. If the value if 1, it MAY return it.]]
[[request_problem_information] [`uint8_t`] [The value of 0 signals that the Server MAY return a Reason String or User Properties on a __CONNACK__ or __DISCONNECT__ packet,
but MUST NOT send them on any packet other than __PUBLISH__, __CONNACK__, or __DISCONNECT__.
If the value is 1, the Server MAY return a Reason String or User Properties where it is allowed.]]
[[user_property] [`std::vector<std::string>`] [A list of name, value pairs (__UTF8_STRING_PAIR__) defining User Properties.
The meaning of these properties is not defined by the specification.]]
[[authentication_method] [`std::string`] [A UTF-8 Encoded String containing the name of the authentication method used for extended authentication.]]
[[authentication_data] [`std::string`] [Binary Data containing authentication data. The contents of the data are defined by the authentication method.]]
]
[h4 Usage]
After obtaining an instance of `async_mqtt5::connect_props`, the subscript operator can be used to access a Property.
The Identifiers listed in the table above are available within the `async_mqtt5::prop` namespace for Property access.
[h4 Example]
The following example shows how to set a Property value:
[!c++]
async_mqtt5::connect_props props;
props[async_mqtt5::prop::session_expiry_interval] = 1200;
props[async_mqtt5::prop::receive_maximum] = int16_t(100);
The following example shows how to retrieve a Property value:
[note When retrieving a property value, the subscript operator will consistently return a `std::optional` of the value type for all properties,
except for `async_mqtt5::prop::user_property`, where it will return an instance of its value type, `std::vector<std::string>`.]
[!c++]
std::optional<std::string> auth_method = props[async_mqtt5::prop::authentication_method];
if (auth_method.has_value())
// authentication method property was previously set
else
// authentication method property was not set
