When you say "oio", do you mean the classic networking APIs, as in 
Socket and ServerSocket? The SCTP API that is included in the JDK is 
based on NIO. This means it can be used in both blocking and 
non-blocking mode. When multiplexing (via a Selector) then the channels 
have to configured non-blocking.
