org.eclipse.rap.rwt.remote
Interface Connection

public interface Connection

An instance of this interface represents a connection used to communicate with the client. Every UI session has exactly one connection which can be obtained by calling UISession.getConnection().

Note: The classes and interfaces in the package org.eclipse.rap.rwt.remote are still considered provisional. They are expected to evolve over the next releases, which may lead to slight changes. We make the package available to enable the development of custom components with the new API.

Since:

2.0
