javax.microedition.io.Connector

Synopsis

This class acts as a placeholder for the class methods that are used to create all the connection objects. When opening a connection, an access mode can be specified as READ, WRITE, or READ_WRITE. This means that a connection can be used for reading, writing, or both. This, however, is protocol-dependent, as some protocol connections may not allow READ access (a connection to a printer, for example). In this case an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown. If no access mode is specified, then the default READ_WRITE will be used.
