ApplicationConnection (vaadin-all 7.7.16 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.vaadin.client.ApplicationConnection

All Implemented Interfaces:

com.google.gwt.event.shared.HasHandlers
```
public class ApplicationConnection
extends Object
implements com.google.gwt.event.shared.HasHandlers
```
This is the client side communication "engine", managing client-server communication with its server side counterpart com.vaadin.server.VaadinService. Client-side connectors receive updates from the corresponding server-side connector (typically component) as state updates or RPC calls. The connector has the possibility to communicate back with its server side counter part through RPC calls. TODO document better Entry point classes (widgetsets) define onModuleLoad().

  - UIDL_REFRESH_TOKEN
```
public static final String UIDL_REFRESH_TOKEN
```
    A string that, if found in a non-JSON response to a UIDL request, will cause the browser to refresh the page. If followed by a colon, optional whitespace, and a URI, causes the browser to synchronously load the URI.
    This allows, for instance, a servlet filter to redirect the application to a custom login page when the session expires. For example:
```
 if (sessionExpired) {
     response.setHeader("Content-Type", "text/html");
     response.getWriter().write(myLoginPageHtml + "");
 }
