Class DatagramContract

  drcl.comp.Contract
      drcl.inet.contract.DatagramContract

public class DatagramContract

extends Contract

The datagram sending/delivery contract. This contract defines the data exchange formats between two protocol layers that use datagrams. Specifically, the contract defines the following message format:

1. the packet to be sent (Object),
2. the source address (long),
3. the destination address (long),
4. the port (int), and
5. the type of service (long).

When sending a datagram, one may specify the source address as Address.NULL_ADDR to have the lower layer to put in an appropriate address for the upper layer.
