Interface RMIClientSocketFactory
-
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- RMISocketFactory, SslRMIClientSocketFactory
public interface RMIClientSocketFactory
AnRMIClientSocketFactory
instance is used by the RMI runtime in order to obtain client sockets for RMI calls. A remote object can be associated with anRMIClientSocketFactory
when it is created/exported via the constructors orexportObject
methods ofjava.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject
andjava.rmi.activation.Activatable
.An
RMIClientSocketFactory
instance associated with a remote object will be downloaded to clients when the remote object's reference is transmitted in an RMI call. ThisRMIClientSocketFactory
will be used to create connections to the remote object for remote method calls.An
RMIClientSocketFactory
instance can also be associated with a remote object registry so that clients can use custom socket communication with a remote object registry.An implementation of this interface should be serializable and should implement
Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
to returntrue
when passed an instance that represents the same (functionally equivalent) client socket factory, andfalse
otherwise (and it should also implementObject.hashCode()
consistently with itsObject.equals
implementation).- Since:
