RMIRemoteRef

public RMIRemoteRef(RemoteContainer remCont,
                    int remIndex)

This is a full constructor for RemoteRef.

remIndex - the index of the remote object

public RMIRemoteRef(String remCont,
                    int remIndex)

This is a more friendly constructor for RemoteRef.

Parameters:

remCont - the name of the container that handles the remote object.

remIndex - the index of the remote object.

Method Detail

resolve

public RemoteContainer resolve(String contName)

This method resolves a container from a container name. This method simply delegates its job to a RMIRemoteContainer.

Overrides:

resolve in class RemoteRef

Parameters:

contName - the name of the container

Returns:

the container reference

resolve(String)

reresolve

public RemoteContainer reresolve()

This method re-gets the reference of a remote container. CORBA do not linearalize remote references in a standard way. Thus a remote reference may need to be adapted whenever it is transmitted. This method performs nothing in the case of RMI. This method is called when a remote reference is received by a RemoteContainer.

Overrides:

reresolve in class RemoteRef

Returns:

the container reference
