[dsdp-tcf-dev] [Bug 317636] New: LocalPeer and RemotePeer needs javadoc

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=317636 
Product/Component: Target Management / TCF

           Summary: LocalPeer and RemotePeer needs javadoc
    Classification: DSDP
           Product: Target Management
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: TCF
        AssignedTo: dsdp.tm.tcf-inbox@xxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: john.cortell@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
         QAContact: martin.oberhuber@xxxxxxxxxxxxx


LocalPeer and RemotePeer are undocumented and it's not obvious what they
represent. The most intuitive definition is that a local peer is one running on
"this" machine, and a remote peer is running on "another" machine, but that is
not, in fact, what they represent. "local" and "remote" are relative to the
agent. If there are five agents running on a machine, each contributing a peer,
then from the perspective of any one of those agents, there is one local peer
and four remote ones. A peer running on another machine is equally a remote
peer. 

Without documentation, I think most TCF newbies will confuse the meaning of
these classes.
