Returns a future for a SecureServerSocket. When the future completes the server socket is bound to the given address and port and has started listening on it.
Returns a future for a SecureServerSocket. When the future completes the server socket is bound to the given address and port and has started listening on it.
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 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.
Incoming client connections are promoted to secure connections, using the server certificate given by certificateName.
address must be given as a numeric address, not a host name.
certificateName is the nickname or the distinguished name (DN) of the certificate in the certificate database. It is looked up in the NSS certificate database set by SecureSocket.initialize. If certificateName contains "CN=", it is assumed to be a distinguished name. Otherwise, it is looked up as a nickname.
To request or require that clients authenticate by providing an SSL (TLS) client certificate, set the optional parameter requestClientCertificate or requireClientCertificate to true. Requiring a certificate implies requesting a certificate, so one doesn't need to set both to true. To check whether a client certificate was received, check SecureSocket.peerCertificate after connecting. If no certificate was received, the result will be null.
The optional argument shared specify whether additional binds
to the same address
, port
and v6Only
combination is
possible from the same Dart process. If shared
is true
and
additional binds are performed, then the incoming connections
will be distributed between that set of
SecureServerSocket
s. One way of using this is to have number of
isolates between which incoming connections are distributed.
