public interface Receiver extends AutoCloseable
Receiver receives MidiEvent objects and
typically does something useful in response, such as interpreting them to
generate sound or raw MIDI output. Common MIDI receivers include
synthesizers and MIDI Out ports.MidiDevice,

If the creation of this Receiver resulted in
implicitly opening the underlying device, the device is
implicitly closed by this method. This is true unless the device is
kept open by other Receiver or Transmitter
instances that opened the device implicitly, and unless the device
has been opened explicitly. If the device this
Receiver is retrieved from is closed explicitly by
calling MidiDevice.close, the
Receiver is closed, too. For a detailed
description of open/close behaviour see the class description
of MidiDevice.
