Erlang JInterface: OtpNode vs OtpSelf

Question

I'm studying the Erlang JInterface package, and I'm not clear on the difference between the OtpNode class and the OtpSelf class and how they're intended to be used.

Answer 1

I believe the main difference is:

This class is used when you do not wish to manage connections yourself - outgoing connections are established as needed, and incoming connections accepted automatically.

OtpNode is oriented towards managing the connections yourself.
