Uses of Package
java.nio.channels

Packages that use java.nio.channels
Package Description
java.nio.channels Defines channels, which represent connections to entities that are capable of performing I/O operations, such as files and sockets; defines selectors, for multiplexed, non-blocking I/O operations. 
java.nio.channels.spi Service-provider classes for the java.nio.channels package. 
java.nio.file Defines interfaces and classes for the Java virtual machine to access files, file attributes, and file systems. 
java.nio.file.spi Service-provider classes for the java.nio.file package.
