1.3.2 Channel Types

A channel type is defined as a logical grouping of operations (messages) that can be sent over the mesh. A mesh can be used to handle more than one channel type simultaneously.

A channel type is identified by a unique URI. The HostName property of the URI matches the mesh name, and the scheme of the URI is "net.p2p".

Following are some example ChannelType URIs in the mesh "BobsNewsFlash":

  • net.p2p://BobsNewsFlash/Political

  • net.p2p://BobsNewsFlash/Financial/Stocks
