Static Methods

lookup(String host) → 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.
