The AbstractConsumer is the base class for both the Consumer and MultiTopicConsumer classes. You use those classes to receive pushed messages from the server.

The AbstractProducer is the base class for the Producer and MultiTopicConsumer classes. You use these classes to push messages to the server.

Responder for processing channel authentication responses.

The Channel class is the base message channel class that all channels in the messaging system must extend.

The ChannelSet is a set of Channels that are used to send messages to a target destination. The ChannelSet improves the quality of service on the client by hunting through its Channels to send messages in the face of network failures or individual Channel problems.

A Consumer subscribes to a destination to receive messages. Consumers send subscribe and unsubscribe messages which generate a MessageAckEvent or MessageFaultEvent depending upon whether the operation was successful or not. Once subscribed, a Consumer dispatches a MessageEvent for each message it receives. Consumers provide the ability to filter messages using a selector. These selectors must be understood by the destination.

Singleton class that stores the global Id for this Player instance that is server assigned when the client makes its initial connection to the server.

The MessageResponder class handles a successful result or fault from a message destination. For each message that a Channel sends, the Channel creates a MessageResponder to handle the result. Upon a response, the Channel will invoke either the result() or status() callback on the MessageResponder. MessageResponder subclasses should override these methods to perform any necessary processing. For every response, whether a successful result or an error, the MessageResponder should invoke acknowledge() on its agent. If the response was a fault, the MessageResponder should also invoke fault() on its agent.

A Producer sends messages to a destination. Producers dispatch a MessageAckEvent or MessageFaultEvent for each message they send depending upon whether the outbound message was sent and processed successfully or not.
