# socketStartConnect method Null safety

Future<ConnectionTask<Socket>> socketStartConnect (

1. dynamic host,
2. int port,
3. {dynamic sourceAddress}

)

Asynchronously returns a ConnectionTask that connects to the given host and port when successful.

When this override is installed, this functions overrides the behavior of `Socket.startConnect(...)`.

## Implementation

    Future<ConnectionTask<Socket>> socketStartConnect(host, int port,
        {sourceAddress}) {
      return Socket._startConnect(host, port, sourceAddress: sourceAddress);
    }
