/**
* A Web Socket session represents a conversation between two web socket endpoints. As soon
* as the websocket handshake completes successfully, the web socket implementation provides
* the endpoint an open websocket session. The endpoint can then register interest in incoming
* messages that are part of this newly created session by providing a MessageHandler to the
* session, and can send messages to the other end of the conversation by means of the RemoteEndpoint object
* obtained from this session.
*
* Once the session is closed, it is no longer valid for use by applications. Calling any of
* its methods once the session has been closed will result in an {@link java.lang.IllegalStateException} being thrown.
* Developers should retrieve any information from the session during the
* {@link Endpoint#onClose } method.
*
*
Session objects may be called by multiple threads. Implementations must
* ensure the integrity of the mutable properties of the session under such circumstances.
