EventStore.ClientAPI.Embedded: Network Endpoints Required??

When using EventStore.ClientAPI.Embedded (from nuget: http://www.nuget.org/packages/EventStore.Client.Embedded/ ), is there a way to build the ClusterVNode without opening tcp ports?

ClusterVNode embeddedInMemoryVNode = EmbeddedVNodeBuilder.AsSingleNode()
.RunInMemory()
.RunProjections(ProjectionsMode.All)
.WithWorkerThreads(16);

embeddedInMemoryVNode.Start();

var connection = EmbeddedEventStoreConnection.Create(embeddedInMemoryVNode, settings);

The above code gives me the exception:

System.ArgumentNullException was caught
_HResult=-2147467261
_message=Value cannot be null.
HResult=-2147467261
IsTransient=false
Message=Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: internalTcpEndPoint
Source=EventStore.ClientAPI.Embedded
ParamName=internalTcpEndPoint

Is there a way to build the ClusterVNode without opening tcp ports? Or is this by design? I was hoping to load up multiple Vnodes in memory without having to manage instance has which ports. (much less having ports open)

Thanks,

Ryan

var ipEndPoint = new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.None, 0);

EmbeddedVNodeBuilder

.AsSingleNode()

.WithInternalTcpOn(ipEndPoint)

.WithInternalHttpOn(ipEndPoint);

We could add specific builder methods for this as well actually. Never really considered it.

FYI.

When I use new IPEndPoint(IPAddress.None, 0), I get the following message in the console of my application, but it doesn’t seem to kill the Node.

Exiting with exit code: 1.

Exit reason: The requested address is not valid in its context

So using the EmbeddedEventStoreConnection I am still able to write to the event store. Both in memory (RunInMemory()) & on disk ( RunOnDisk(dbLocationDirectory))
