/**
 * The abstract XMPPConnection class provides an interface for connections to a XMPP server and
 * implements shared methods which are used by the different types of connections (e.g.
 * {@link XMPPTCPConnection} or {@link XMPPBOSHConnection}). To create a connection to a XMPP server
 * a simple usage of this API might look like the following:
 * <p>
 * 
 * <pre>
 * // Create a connection to the igniterealtime.org XMPP server.
 * XMPPConnection con = new XMPPTCPConnection("igniterealtime.org");
 * // Connect to the server
 * con.connect();
 * // Most servers require you to login before performing other tasks.
 * con.login("jsmith", "mypass");
 * // Start a new conversation with John Doe and send him a message.
 * Chat chat = ChatManager.getInstanceFor(con).createChat(<font color="green">"jdoe@igniterealtime.org"</font>, new MessageListener() {
 *     public void processMessage(Chat chat, Message message) {
 *         // Print out any messages we get back to standard out.
 *         System.out.println(<font color="green">"Received message: "</font> + message);
 *     }
 * });
 * chat.sendMessage(<font color="green">"Howdy!"</font>);
 * // Disconnect from the server
 * con.disconnect();
 * </pre>
 * <p>
 * Connections can be reused between connections. This means that an Connection may be connected,
 * disconnected and then connected again. Listeners of the Connection will be retained across
 * connections.
