Interface TridentCollector

All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface TridentCollector
Interface for publishing tuples to a stream and reporting exceptions (to be displayed in Storm UI).

Trident components that have the ability to emit tuples to a stream are passed an instance of this interface.

For example, to emit a new tuple to a stream, you would do something like the following:

```java collector.emit(new Values("a", "b", "c")); ```
