Class MessageValidator

java.lang.Object
net.i2p.router.MessageValidator

public class MessageValidator
extends Object
Singleton to manage the logic (and historical data) to determine whether a message is valid or not (meaning it isn't expired and hasn't already been received). We'll need a revamp once we start dealing with long message expirations (since it might involve keeping a significant number of entries in memory), but that probably won't be necessary until I2P 3.0.
