Description

Interface Summary

MessageEvent.Listener	This describes the methods a receiver of MessageEvents needs to process.
MessageEvent.Source	This describes a source of MessageEvents.
MuConnectionFactory.ConnectionFactory	A ConnectionFactory creates a connection channel object on demand.
MuLineEvent.Listener	This describes the methods that will be invoked and given MuLineEvents.
MuLineEvent.Source	This describes the source of MuLineEvents.
MuLogin	This interface describes an object (and factory) that "connect" to a MU using the appropriate call/response behavior.
MuLogin.Factory	This factory creates an object "on demand" that will implement the MuLogin interface.
NMCStringDataDestination	This allows us to send strings to a MU of some sort.
NMCStringDataDestination.Factory	This creates an object that implements the destination interface.
NMCStringDataSource	This describes a way to fetch strings from a live MU connection.
NMCStringDataSource.Factory	This connects an existing Reader to the formatting from a MU.

Class Summary

AvailableMuCollection	This class represents only the names of MUs as established in an external index.
CommandSender	A CommandSender object listens to a source, issues a single command, and then discards everything back until either a close of connection or the result of the command that was sent, which it returns to its caller.
MessageEvent	This class provides a message from the MU and all interfaces needed in support of it.
MessageEvent.DefaultListener	This default implementation throws everything away, useful if you don't care about ALL the messages, just a subset.
MessageEvent.MergeListener	This class merges all the messages into a single message, and implements the Template Method design pattern.
MessageEvent.What	type-safe enum pattern (Effective Java, Item 21)
MuAddress	This class represents the address of a MUCK - both the hostname and port.
MuckConnection	This class handles the networking for an NMC (or FB/TinyMUCK) based MUCK.
MuckConnection.Factory	This factory creates MuckConnections on demand given only a MuLoginDescription.
MuckConnection.Marker
MuckConnection.TestListener
MuckInputSource	This class provides a source of strings each representing exactly one line from a MUCK (lines ending in CR/LF by protocol) with the CR/LF pair stripped off.
MuckInputSource.Factory	This class creates an object of MuckLineDiscipline on demand.
MuckLogin	This class handles an NMC/FB MUCK login sequence.
MuckLogin.Factory
MuckOutputDestination	This class takes strings meant to be sent into the MUCK, and properly terminates them (CR/LF) and sends them to the Writer.
MuckOutputDestination.Factory
MuCollection	This class provides a single point of access to find MU connections by useful key.
MuConnectionFactory	This is a factory that allows "connector" factories to be registered and which creates MuConnector's on demand.
MuConnector	This class provides an event-source and sink for MU connections.
MuGateway	This class is a top-level class expected to be run via main that provides a "keep alive" link to a MU as a proxy-server.
MuGateway.Factory
MuIdentity	This provides a single class that can represent a character on a MU with certainty.
MuLineEvent	This class provides a raw string from the MU and all interfaces needed in support of it.
MuLogin.Result
MuLoginDescription	This is used to represent a person on a MU with sufficient details that a login can be done.

Exception Summary

MuckLoginInvalid
MuckNotResponding
MuConnectionFactory.PropertyLoadFails	This is thrown if a request to load properties can't be done.
NMCConnectionLost
NMCException
NMCNotFound
SourceUnavailableException	This exception class indicates that the command couldn't be delivered, and so wasn't processed.
