- DefaultEntityTransport
public interface EntityTransport
Represents a means of writing entities to the HTTP response. For most
containers this is trivial, simply write to the output stream on the Responsee
However, some containers have an architecture where the content transmission can
be deferred, and this abstraction exists to support that.
For example, Restlet uses an API with deferred content transmission. But also
SEDA (http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~mdw/proj/seda/) servers generally will want
to use a seperate thread pool for generating content from that which processes
request headers etc
