Package com.jme3.network.kernel Description

The kernel package is the heart of the JME networking module and controls the routing and dispatch of message data over different transport implementations. Most users will never have to deal with these classes unless they are writing their own client and server implementations that diverge from the standard classes that are provided.

Kernel defines the core of a server-side message broker that abstracts away the specific transport and underlying threading model used. For example, it might use NIO selectors in a single threaded model or straight multithreaded socket model. Or it might implement SSL connections. Once created, Kernel users don't need to care about the details.

Endpoint is a managed connection within a Kernel providing kernel to client connectivity.

Connector defines the basic client-side message sender and these objects are typically used to connect to a Kernel though they can connect to any network port that supports the implementation's protocol. Implementations are provided for straight TCP and UDP communication and could be extended to support SSL or different threading models.
