## Class MessageScope

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.tinkerpop.gremlin.process.computer.MessageScope

- Direct Known Subclasses:
    MessageScope.Global, MessageScope.Local

      public abstract class MessageScope
      extends Object

  A `MessageScope` represents the range of a message. A message can have multiple receivers and message scope allows the underlying `GraphComputer` to apply the message passing algorithm in whichever manner is most efficient. It is best to use `MessageScope.Local` if possible as that provides more room for optimization by providers than `MessageScope.Global`.
