Defined in:
lib/openc3/streams/stream.rb

Overview

Class that implements the following methods: read, write(data), connect, connected? and disconnect. Streams are simply data sources which Protocol classes read and write to. This separation of concerns allows Streams to simply focus on getting and sending raw data while the higher level processing occurs in Protocol.

Direct Known Subclasses

MqttStream, SerialStream, TcpipSocketStream
