How to listen to 0.0.0.0:8080 with ListenTCP

How can I listen on TCP port 8080 with net.ListenTCP ?

With net.Conn I simply do this:

ln, err := net.Listen("tcp", ":8080")

Whats the simplest solution for ListenTCP?

To use net.ListenTCP, you must construct a net.TCPAddr struct. The simplest way is to resolve one from the same string you pass to Dial or Listen:

addr, err := net.ResolveTCPAddr("tcp", ":8000")
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

ln, err := net.ListenTCP("tcp", addr)

Per the comments on net.ResolveTCPAddr, valid combinations of "network" and "address" can be found in the net.Dial documentation.
