Class Net2AnyChannel<T>

java.lang.Object

org.jcsp.net2.Net2AnyChannel<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

ChannelInput<T>, Poisonable, SharedChannelInput<T>, NetChannelInput<T>, NetSharedChannelInput<T>, Networked

final class Net2AnyChannel<T>
extends Object
implements NetSharedChannelInput<T>

This class is a concrete implementation of a NetSharedChannelInput, and acts as a wrapper to a Net2OneChannel, allowing safe shared access. This class is internal to the JCSP architecture. To create an instance of this class, use the NetChannel factory, or the CNS.
