A factory function to construct an object of typeIDSConnection.
The returned connection object should not be used directly; instead it should be passed as an argument to the constructor ofIDSClient.
The optionaloptionsargument may be used to configure aspects of the returnedIDSConnection. Expected options are any of the types in the following option lists:
