Method Detail

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from interface: Message

Specified by:

If this returns false, the transmit queue will immediately go on to transmit the next message (if any).

Overrides:

replyExpected in class AbstractMRMessage

Returns:

true by default in Abstract MR message.
