Package uk.ac.starlink.connect
Classes related to persistent connections to remote services.
Currently the main service provided by the connections defined here is
access to some kind of filesystem which is modelled as a simple
tree structure (see
Node
and subinterfaces).
Connection implementations are supplied by classes in other
packages; the ConnectorManager
class is the place to find out what implementations are available in
this JVM.
