public interface WritableByteChannel extends Channel
A channel that can write bytes.

Only one write operation upon a writable channel may be in progress at any given time. If one thread initiates a write operation upon a channel then any other thread that attempts to initiate another write operation will block until the first operation is complete. Whether or not other kinds of I/O operations may proceed concurrently with a write operation depends upon the type of the channel.
