[det]tcp_bind(SocketId,
?Address)Bind the socket to Address on the current machine. This
operation, together with tcp_listen/2
and tcp_accept/3 implement the server-side
of the socket interface. Address is either an plain Port
or a term HostPort. The first form binds the socket to the given port on
all interfaces, while the second only binds to the matching interface. A
typical example is below, causing the socket to listen only on port 8080
on the local machine's network.
tcp_bind(Socket, localhost:8080)
If Port is unbound, the system picks an arbitrary free
port and unifies Port with the selected port number. Port
is either an integer or the name of a registered service. See also
tcp_connect/4.
