Description Ed Swartz CLA 2010-09-08 19:25:11 EDT 
The ITransportChannel API consists only of "doer" methods that throw exceptions.

In practice, implementations of these methods will throw if the channel is not open -- and #open will throw if the channel *is* open.  

For my purposes, I need to keep a singleton transport channel, so I need to know if it's open or not without parsing exceptions, hence this API.  It seems generally saner to require an #isOpen() method in all cases.
