The VersaStream class is an extension to the idea of InputStreams and OutputStreams. I'll write more about VersaStream later. For now, please take a look at the source code inlcuded. You could start by reading ZeeProxy.java, then VersaStreamFactory.java, then VersaStream.java, for example. If you don't have the source files (probably because you downloaded the jar file), please go to http://www.oocities.org/elifarley/javalibs/ In this page you will find the source files.
