InternetAddress class Null safety

An internet address or a Unix domain address.

This object holds an internet address. If this internet address is the result of a DNS lookup, the address also holds the hostname used to make the lookup. An Internet address combined with a port number represents an endpoint to which a socket can connect or a listening socket can bind.

Static Methods

lookup(String host, {InternetAddressType type: InternetAddressType.any}) → Future<List<InternetAddress>>
Lookup a host, returning a Future of a list of InternetAddresss. If type is InternetAddressType.ANY, it will lookup both IP version 4 (IPv4) and IP version 6 (IPv6) addresses. If type is either InternetAddressType.IPv4 or InternetAddressType.IPv6 it will only lookup addresses of the specified type. The order of the list can, and most likely will, change over time.
tryParse(String address) → InternetAddress?
Attempts to parse address as a numeric address. [...]
