Interface Connector<C>

All Superinterfaces:
CoreComponent
public interface Connector<C> extends CoreComponent
A connector is a particular core-component. A connector bridge to dedicated library or product but with no purpose in mind. A connector is only used by plugins to implement specific functions via the dedicated library. All connectors MUST BE thread safe. Connectors are singletons. As a connector is a core-component, it can own component's behaviors such as Activeable.
