39   * A handle which represents connection between two end-points regardless of
40   * transport types.
41   * <p/>
42   * {@link IoSession} provides user-defined attributes.  User-defined attributes
43   * are application-specific data which are associated with a session.
44   * It often contains objects that represents the state of a higher-level protocol
45   * and becomes a way to exchange data between filters and handlers.
46   * <p/>
47   * <h3>Adjusting Transport Type Specific Properties</h3>
48   * <p/>
49   * You can simply downcast the session to an appropriate subclass.
50   * </p>
51   * <p/>
52   * <h3>Thread Safety</h3>
53   * <p/>
54   * {@link IoSession} is thread-safe.  But please note that performing
55   * more than one {@link #write(Object)} calls at the same time will
56   * cause the {@link IoFilter#filterWrite(IoFilter.NextFilter,IoSession,WriteRequest)}
57   * to be executed simultaneously, and therefore you have to make sure the
58   * {@link IoFilter} implementations you're using are thread-safe, too.
59   * </p>
60   * <p/>
61   * <h3>Equality of Sessions</h3>
62   * TODO : The getId() method is totally wrong. We can't base
63   * a method which is designed to create a unique ID on the hashCode method.
64   * {@link #equals(Object)} and {@link #hashCode()} shall not be overriden
65   * to the default behavior that is defined in {@link Object}.
