            <code>NSPort</code> is an abstract class defining
            interfaces underlying communications in the
            distributed objects framework. Each side of a
            connection will have an <code>NSPort</code>
            object, responsible for sending and receiving
            <a rel="gsdoc" href="NSPortMessage.html#class$NSPortMessage">NSPortMessage</a>

              s, which are then passed to delegates when received.
              The <code>NSPort</code> must be added to the
              <a rel="gsdoc" href="NSRunLoop.html#class$NSRunLoop">NSRunLoop</a>

                as an input source.
                  </p>
    <p>
      
              
    </p>
    <p>

                This class also implements the functionality of
                the <code><em>NSMachPort</em></code> class on OS X.
