Interface ResumableConnectionManager

All Superinterfaces:
ConnectionManager
All Known Implementing Classes:
HttpConnectionManager
public interface ResumableConnectionManager
extends ConnectionManager
An extension to the ConnectionManager interface that add support for specifying a start offset when downloading the external file. If the external protocol has support for setting a start offset it is recommended that connection managers are implementing this interface, since otherwise the BASE core may simply read to the specified offset which is wasting bandwith.
