/**
* A channel that can be multiplexed via a {@link Selector}.
*
* <p> In order to be used with a selector, an instance of this class must
* first be <i>registered</i> via the {@link #register(Selector,int,Object)
* register} method. This method returns a new {@link SelectionKey} object
* that represents the channel's registration with the selector.
*
* <p> Once registered with a selector, a channel remains registered until it
* is <i>deregistered</i>. This involves deallocating whatever resources were
* allocated to the channel by the selector.
*
* <p> A channel cannot be deregistered directly; instead, the key representing
* its registration must be <i>cancelled</i>. Cancelling a key requests that
* the channel be deregistered during the selector's next selection operation.
* A key may be cancelled explicitly by invoking its {@link
* SelectionKey#cancel() cancel} method. All of a channel's keys are cancelled
* implicitly when the channel is closed, whether by invoking its {@link
* Channel#close close} method or by interrupting a thread blocked in an I/O
* operation upon the channel.
*
* <p> If the selector itself is closed then the channel will be deregistered,
* and the key representing its registration will be invalidated, without
* further delay.
*
* <p> A channel may be registered at most once with any particular selector.
*
* <p> Whether or not a channel is registered with one or more selectors may be
* determined by invoking the {@link #isRegistered isRegistered} method.
*
* <p> Selectable channels are safe for use by multiple concurrent
* threads. </p>
*
*
* <a name="bm">
* <h4>Blocking mode</h4>
*
* A selectable channel is either in <i>blocking</i> mode or in
* <i>non-blocking</i> mode. In blocking mode, every I/O operation invoked
* upon the channel will block until it completes. In non-blocking mode an I/O
* operation will never block and may transfer fewer bytes than were requested
* or possibly no bytes at all. The blocking mode of a selectable channel may
* be determined by invoking its {@link #isBlocking isBlocking} method.
*
* <p> Newly-created selectable channels are always in blocking mode.
* Non-blocking mode is most useful in conjunction with selector-based
* multiplexing. A channel must be placed into non-blocking mode before being
* registered with a selector, and may not be returned to blocking mode until
* it has been deregistered.
