Class MarshalledObject<T>
- java.lang.Object
-
- java.rmi.MarshalledObject<T>
-
- Type Parameters:
-
T
- the type of the object contained in thisMarshalledObject
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable
public final class MarshalledObject<T> extends Object implements Serializable
AMarshalledObject
contains a byte stream with the serialized representation of an object given to its constructor. Theget
method returns a new copy of the original object, as deserialized from the contained byte stream. The contained object is serialized and deserialized with the same serialization semantics used for marshaling and unmarshaling parameters and return values of RMI calls: When the serialized form is created:- classes are annotated with a codebase URL from where the class can be loaded (if available), and
- any remote object in the
MarshalledObject
is represented by a serialized instance of its stub.
When copy of the object is retrieved (via the
get
method), if the class is not available locally, it will be loaded from the appropriate location (specified the URL annotated with the class descriptor when the class was serialized.MarshalledObject
facilitates passing objects in RMI calls that are not automatically deserialized immediately by the remote peer.- Since:

Constructor Detail
MarshalledObject
public MarshalledObject(T obj) throws IOException
Creates a newMarshalledObject
that contains the serialized representation of the current state of the supplied object. The object is serialized with the semantics used for marshaling parameters for RMI calls.- Parameters:
-
obj
- the object to be serialized (must be serializable) - Throws:
-
IOException
- if anIOException
occurs; anIOException
may occur ifobj
is not serializable. - Since:
- 1.2
-
Method Detail
get
public T get() throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException
Returns a new copy of the contained marshalledobject. The internal representation is deserialized with the semantics used for unmarshaling parameters for RMI calls.- Returns:
- a copy of the contained object
- Throws:
-
IOException
- if anIOException
occurs while deserializing the object from its internal representation. -
ClassNotFoundException
- if aClassNotFoundException
occurs while deserializing the object from its internal representation. could not be found - Since:
- 1.2
hashCode
public int hashCode()
Return a hash code for thisMarshalledObject
.- Overrides:
-
hashCode
in classObject
- Returns:
- a hash code
- See Also:
-
Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
,System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)
equals
public boolean equals(Object obj)
Compares thisMarshalledObject
to another object. Returns true if and only if the argument refers to aMarshalledObject
that contains exactly the same serialized representation of an object as this one does. The comparison ignores any class codebase annotation, meaning that two objects are equivalent if they have the same serialized representation except for the codebase of each class in the serialized representation.- Overrides:
-
equals
in classObject
- Parameters:
-
obj
- the object to compare with thisMarshalledObject
- Returns:
-
true
if the argument contains an equivalent serialized object;false
otherwise - Since:
- 1.2

-
