createConnection
external fun createConnection(options: NetConnectOpts, connectionListener: () -> Unit = definedExternally): Socket(source)
A factory function, which creates a new {@link Socket}, immediately initiates connection with socket.connect(), then returns the net.Socket that starts the connection.
When the connection is established, a 'connect' event will be emitted on the returned socket. The last parameter connectListener, if supplied, will be added as a listener for the 'connect' event once.
Possible signatures:
{@link createConnection}
{@link createConnection} for
IPCconnections.{@link createConnection} for TCP connections.
The {@link connect} function is an alias to this function.
