Class CommPlain

java.lang.Object
  org.openuat.channel.http.CommPlain

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable, ifComm

public class CommPlain
extends java.lang.Object
implements ifComm

Author:

Christoph Egger Must be run as a thread!!! Example: comm = new Comm(); Thread commThread = new Thread(comm); commThread.start(); Additional, the calling object must also be run as thread! In the run() method of the calling object, "this.wait()" has to be called, and in the "handleStringEvent" method, "this.notify()" has to be called, which stops the waiting in the run() method. Further work has to be done triggered by the run() method.
