/**
 * This is a CommsEndpoint class, it provides implementation for
 * registering listeners and for synchronous message sending.
 * <p>
 * Comms endpoint provides interprocess communication functionality. Comms communication
 * is point-to-point meaning that client endpoint can be connected to a single server at a time.
 * Communication is message based, where users wrap their payload to CommsMessage.
 * Comms endpoints support synchronous and asynchronous message sending.
 * <p>
 * Messages can be sent asynchronously or synchronously. Synchronous message sending blocks until
 * a reply is received or when specified timeout occurs.
 * <p>
 * CommsListener provides a way to receive messages asynchronously. Listeners are registered
 * to endpoint. When message belonging to listener is received, will Comms endpoint make a
 * callback for listener. Application can register as many listeners as need.
 * <p>
 * Example to use CommsEndpoint class:
 * <pre>
 * <code>
 *       CommsEndpoint comms = new CommsEndpoint();
 *       comms.connect(CommsEndpoint.JAVA_CAPTAIN);
 *       comms.registerListener(MODULE_ID, listener);
 *
 *       CommsMessage message = new CommsMessage();
 *
 *       message.setMessageId(MESSAGE_ID);
 *       message.setModuleId(MODULE_ID);
 *
 *       message.write("hello world from java");
 *
 *       comms.send(message);
 *       comms.destroy();
 * </code>
 * </pre>
