parse

Parses a string of the form host:port into a NetworkHostAndPort. The host part may be a hostname or IP address. If it's an IPv6 address, it must be enclosed in square brackets. Note this does not parse the toString of a resolved java.net.InetSocketAddress, which is of a host/IP:port form.

Throws

if the port is missing, the string is garbage, or the NetworkHostAndPort constructor rejected the parsed parts.
