Package nl.colorize.multimedialib.renderer

Interface Network

public interface Network
Interface for the platform-specific mechanism for network access. HTTP requests are sent asynchronously to avoid blocking the application. These asynchronous operations will return a Subject that applications can use to await the result. Callback methods will be invoked from a thread that is compatible with the current renderer.
