openUrl method
Opens a HTTP connection.
The HTTP method is specified in method
and the URL to use in
url
.
The Host
header for the request will be set to the value
Uri.host:Uri.port from url
(if url.host
is an IP address, it will
still be used in the Host
header). This can be overridden through the
HttpClientRequest interface before the request is sent.
For additional information on the sequence of events during an HTTP transaction, and the objects returned by the futures, see the overall documentation for the class HttpClient.
Implementation
Future<HttpClientRequest> openUrl(String method, Uri url);
