Sending a message directly upon connect

[David M. Lloyd]

In the protocol I'm working on, the client and server each need to send a 
message immediately upon connection.  If I send the message in my 
IoHandler.sessionOpened() method, is it safe to say that the message will 
be sent before the first IoHandler.messageReceived() occurs?  If so, that 
fact should be in the javadoc for IoHandler.

Thanks.
