Summary

public interface  RouteTable
{
          // Methods 4
     public abstract void configure(int, boolean, String) throws IOException, AddressFormatException, NoSuchNodeAddress;
     public abstract Enumeration getNeighbors();
     public abstract RouteEntry getRoute(int);
     public abstract int neighborCount();
}

This is the interface the ants.core package expects a route table to satisfy.

This class only exists to avoid circular dependencies between the ants.ants package and any dynamic routing table implementation. XXX We may be going too far.

XXX notice that we're still dependent upon the Janos route package's RouteEntry type. Ah, well.

XXX The name is a bit confusing, especially for code that can see this class and janos/route/RouteTable.

   public abstract void configure(int nodeAddr, 
                                  boolean doUpdates, 
                                  String configFile)  throws IOException, AddressFormatException, NoSuchNodeAddress

Configure the table.

XXX the exception throw is a bit overkill...

   public abstract Enumeration getNeighbors() 

Must return an enumeration of RouteEntry objects.

   public abstract int neighborCount() 

   public abstract RouteEntry getRoute(int addr)
