Class OutputChannelVector

java.lang.Object
  nodenet.OutputChannelVector

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class OutputChannelVector

extends java.lang.Object

implements java.io.Serializable

OutputChannelVector is something which acts like a Vector of OutputChannels instead of Objects.

The methods of this class were previously synchronized, but Sun's Vector class uses synchronized methods. Since our only data field is the already synchronized Vector, locking on this object is redundant.
