Starts listening for HTTP requests on the specified address and
port.
The address can either be a String or an
InternetAddress. If address is a String, bind will
perform a InternetAddress.lookup and use the first value in the
list. To listen on the loopback adapter, which will allow only
incoming connections from the local host, use the value
InternetAddress.LOOPBACK_IP_V4 or
InternetAddress.LOOPBACK_IP_V6. To allow for incoming
connection from the network use either one of the values
InternetAddress.ANY_IP_V4 or InternetAddress.ANY_IP_V6 to
bind to all interfaces or the IP address of a specific interface.
If an IP version 6 (IPv6) address is used, both IP version 6
(IPv6) and version 4 (IPv4) connections will be accepted. To
restrict this to version 6 (IPv6) only, use v6Only to set
version 6 only.
If port has the value 0 an ephemeral port will be chosen by
the system. The actual port used can be retrieved using the
port getter.
The optional argument backlog can be used to specify the listen
backlog for the underlying OS listen setup. If backlog has the
value of 0 (the default) a reasonable value will be chosen by
the system.
The optional argument shared specifies whether additional HttpServer
objects can bind to the same combination of address, port and v6Only.
If shared is true and more HttpServers from this isolate or other
isolates are bound to the port, then the incoming connections will be
distributed among all the bound HttpServers. Connections can be
distributed over multiple isolates this way.
