An output (from the JUCE project's perspective) that sends messages to an endpoint.
An Output is conceptually similar to a unique_ptr, in that it's a nullable move-only type. You can check the null state of an instance by calling isAlive(). isAlive() will return true for an Output that's currently connected, or false otherwise. In particular, isAlive() will return false for a default-constructed Output. If isAlive() returns false, you should avoid calling other member functions: although this won't result in undefined behaviour, none of the functions will produce useful results in this state.
In the case that the device connected to the Output becomes unavailable (e.g. it is unplugged or the bluetooth connection is dropped), the Output will null itself, and calls to isAlive() will return false. You can register a callback to handle this event by calling addDisconnectionListener().
A particular pitfall to watch out for is calling addDisconnectionListener() and removeDisconnectionListener() on a default-constructed Output or other Output for which isAlive() returns false. This will have no effect. Instead, if you want to attach listeners to an Output, you should use Session::connectOutput() to create an Output, and ensure that isAlive() returns true on that Output before attaching listeners.

Sends a range of messages to this endpoint.
If isAlive() returns false at the point where this function is called, then this function has no effect.
Returns true on success, false on failure.
You may send messages using any protocol, and they will be converted automatically to the protocol expected by the receiver.
