  31  * A connection between a debugger and a target VM which it debugs.
  32  *
  33  * <p> A Connection represents a bi-directional communication channel
  34  * between a debugger and a target VM. A Connection is created when
  35  * {@link com.sun.jdi.connect.spi.TransportService TransportService}
  36  * establishes a connection and successfully handshakes with a target
  37  * VM. A TransportService implementation provides a reliable
  38  * JDWP packet transportation service and consequently a Connection
  39  * provides a reliable flow of JDWP packets between the debugger
  40  * and the target VM. A Connection is stream oriented, that is, the
  41  * JDWP packets written to a connection are read by the target VM
  42  * in the order in which they were written. Similiarly packets written
  43  * to a Connection by the target VM are read by the debugger in the
  44  * order in which they were written.
  45  *
  46  * <p> A connection is either open or closed. It is open upon creation,
  47  * and remains open until it is closed. Once closed, it remains closed,
  48  * and any attempt to invoke an I/O operation upon it will cause a
  49  * {@link ClosedConnectionException} to be thrown. A connection can
  50  * be tested by invoking the {@link #isOpen isOpen} method.
  51  *
  52  * <p> A Connection is safe for access by multiple concurrent threads,
  53  * although at most one thread may be reading and at most one thread may
  54  * be writing at any given time.
