/**
* This interface defines the capabilities that a stream connection
* must have.
* <p>
* In a typical implementation of this interface (for instance
* in MIDP), all <code>StreamConnections</code> have one
* underlying <code>InputStream</code> and one <code>OutputStream</code>.
* Opening a <code>DataInputStream</code> counts as opening an
* <code>InputStream</code> and opening a <code>DataOutputStream</code>
* counts as opening an <code>OutputStream</code>. Trying to open
* another <code>InputStream</code> or <code>OutputStream</code>
* causes an <code>IOException</code>. Trying to open the
* <code>InputStream</code> or <code>OutputStream</code> after
* they have been closed causes an <code>IOException</code>.
* <p>
* The methods of <code>StreamConnection</code> are not
* synchronized. The only stream method that can be called safely
* in another thread is <code>close</code>.
*
* @version 12/17/01 (CLDC 1.1)
* @since CLDC 1.0
