Interface ContactInfo<C extends Connection>


public interface ContactInfo<C extends Connection>
The ContactInfo represents the information needed to establish a connection to a (possibly different) process. This is a subset of the PEPt 2.0 connection. Any implemetnation of this interface must define hashCode and equals properly so that it may be used in a Map. It is also recommended that toString() be defined to return a useful summary of the contact info (e.g. address information).
