Vadim Tkachenko (vt#freehold,crocodile.org) spake thusly:
&gt; 
&gt; Recently I with amusement realized that a lot of developers can't
&gt; clearly think in terms of abstraction levels. One more thing which is
&gt; directly related to the portability (and even more, to the good design)
&gt; is abstraction levels and modules as abstractions.

  Very true :)
 
&gt; Getting back on topic, sockets are easily abstracted as streams (and
&gt; Java is a living example of that), threads as services, and there's one
&gt; more very important abstraction (which I'm fighting with right now, but
&gt; the subject had been beaten to death already): storage system.

  The wrapper I refer to is part of a more general collection of stream
classes covering files and memory buffers.
