Type Parameters:

DATA - The type of the datagram to be operated with. In case you wish to use array types, you might better use the DatagramsReceiver type.

All Known Subinterfaces:

BidirectionalConnectionTransceiver<DATA,INPUT,OUTPUT>, BidirectionalStreamConnectionTransceiver<DATA>, ConnectionDatagramsReceiver<DATA,CON>, ConnectionDatagramsTransceiver<DATA,CON>, DatagramReceiver<DATA>, DatagramsDestination<DATA>, DatagramsReceiver<DATA>, DatagramsTransceiver<DATA>, DatagramTransceiver<DATA>, InputStreamConnectionReceiver<DATA>

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractDatagramsReceiver, AbstractInputStreamReceiver, AbstractPrefetchInputStreamReceiver, BidirectionalStreamConnectionTransceiverImpl, BidirectionalStreamTransceiver, DatagramsReceiverDecorator, InputStreamConnectionReceiverImpl, InputStreamReceiver, LoopbackDatagramsReceiver, LoopbackDatagramsTransceiver, PrefetchBidirectionalStreamConnectionTransceiver, PrefetchBidirectionalStreamTransceiver, PrefetchInputStreamConnectionReceiver, PrefetchInputStreamReceiver

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface DatagramDestination<DATA extends Serializable>
```
The DatagramDestination is used to receive datagrams in a unified way. The receive() method provides the next available datagram from the counterpart DatagramSource; in case there is none available.

```
DATA receive()
      throws IOException,
             EOFException
```
    Reads (receives) the next datagram passed from a DatagramTransmitter counterpart. In case none datagram is available, then this method blocks until one is available. To prevent blocking, use the DatagramReceiver extension's Availability.available() method to test beforehand whether a byte is available (in a multi-threaded usage scenario, Availability.available() is not a reliable indicator whether this method will block or not). When a Thread is waiting for a datagram to be read and Thread.interrupt() is being called, then the operation is aborted and an InterruptedException is thrown.
    
    Returns:
    
    The next datagram sent from the DatagramTransmitter counterpart.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - Thrown in case opening or accessing an open line (connection, junction, link) caused problems.
    
    EOFException - Signals that an end of file or end of stream has been reached unexpectedly during input.
