Interface IHostConnector

public interface IHostConnector

Main AWM remote communication interface. Host connectors are called by various AWM functions (e.g. Remote Edit). Before executing a remote function, AWM searches for a host connector to support the currently used ISystemImage. The used ISystemImage is by default taken from the ITaurusSystem of the active application.

Available host connectors can be queried by using HostConnectorFinder.

Not intended to be implemented by clients.
