/**
 * The {@code MessageInfo} class provides additional ancillary information about
 * messages.
 *
 * <P> Received SCTP messages, returned by
 * {@link SctpChannel#receive SctpChannel.receive} and {@link
 * SctpMultiChannel#receive SctpMultiChannel.receive},
 * return a {@code MessageInfo} instance that can be queried to determine
 * ancillary information about the received message. Messages being sent should
 * use one of the {@link #createOutgoing(java.net.SocketAddress,int)
 * createOutgoing} methods to provide ancillary data for the message being
 * sent, and may use the appropriate setter methods to override the default
 * values provided for {@link #isUnordered() unordered}, {@link #timeToLive()
 * timeToLive}, {@link #isComplete() complete} and {@link #payloadProtocolID()
 * payloadProtocolID}, before sending the message.
 *
 * <P> For out going messages the {@code timeToLive} parameter is a time period
 * that the sending side SCTP stack may expire the message if it has not been
 * sent. This time period is an indication to the stack that the message is no
 * longer required to be sent after the time period expires. It is not a hard
 * timeout and may be influenced by whether the association supports the partial
 * reliability extension, <a href=http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3758.txt>RFC 3758
 * <a>
 *
 * <P> {@code MessageInfo} instances are not safe for use by multiple concurrent
 * threads. If a MessageInfo is to be used by more than one thread then access
 * to the MessageInfo should be controlled by appropriate synchronization.
