A Preview of Things to Come |
Remote Method Invocation (RMI) has several new enhancements. Remote Object Activation introduces support for persistent references to remote objects and automatic object activation via these references. Custom Socket Types allow a remote object to specify the custom socket type that RMI will use for remote calls to that object. RMI over a secure transport (such as SSL) can be supported using custom socket types. Minor API enhancements allow the following:
- unexporting a remote object
- obtaining the stub for an object implementation
- obtaining a local object implementation from a stub
- exporting an object on a specific port
