Class Overview

The RemoteServer class is the common superclass to server implementations and provides the framework to support a wide range of remote reference semantics. Specifically, the functions needed to create and export remote objects (i.e. to make them remotely available) are provided abstractly by RemoteServer and concretely by its subclass(es).

Protected Constructors

protected RemoteServer ()

Constructs a RemoteServer.

protected RemoteServer (RemoteRef ref)

Constructs a RemoteServer with the given reference type.

Parameters
ref the remote reference

Public Methods

public static String getClientHost ()

Returns a string representation of the client host for the remote method invocation being processed in the current thread.

Returns
  • a string representation of the client host
Throws
ServerNotActiveException if no remote method invocation is being processed in the current thread

public static PrintStream getLog ()

Returns stream for the RMI call log.

Returns
  • the call log

public static void setLog (OutputStream out)

Log RMI calls to the output stream out. If out is null, call logging is turned off.

If there is a security manager, its checkPermission method will be invoked with a java.util.logging.LoggingPermission("control") permission; this could result in a SecurityException.

Parameters
out the output stream to which RMI calls should be logged
Throws
SecurityException if there is a security manager and the invocation of its checkPermission method fails
