Interface RemoteCall

Deprecated. no replacement.

public interface RemoteCall

RemoteCall is an abstraction used solely by the RMI runtime (in conjunction with stubs and skeletons of remote objects) to carry out a call to a remote object. The RemoteCall interface is deprecated in the Java 2 platform since it is only used by deprecated methods of java.rmi.server.RemoteRef.

Since:

JDK1.1

Method Detail

getOutputStream

public ObjectOutput getOutputStream()
                             throws IOException

Deprecated. no replacement

Return the output stream the stub/skeleton should put arguments/results into.

Returns:

output stream for arguments/results

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

Since:

JDK1.1

releaseOutputStream

public void releaseOutputStream()
                         throws IOException

Deprecated. no replacement

Release the output stream; in some transports this would release the stream.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

Since:

JDK1.1

getInputStream

public ObjectInput getInputStream()
                           throws IOException

Deprecated. no replacement

Get the InputStream that the stub/skeleton should get results/arguments from.

Returns:

input stream for reading arguments/results

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

Since:

JDK1.1

releaseInputStream

public void releaseInputStream()
                        throws IOException

Deprecated. no replacement

Release the input stream. This would allow some transports to release the channel early.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

Since:

JDK1.1

getResultStream

public ObjectOutput getResultStream(boolean success)
                             throws IOException,
                                    StreamCorruptedException

Deprecated. no replacement

Returns an output stream (may put out header information relating to the success of the call). Should only succeed once per remote call.

Parameters:

success - If true, indicates normal return, else indicates exceptional return.

Returns:

output stream for writing call result

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

StreamCorruptedException - If already been called.

Since:

JDK1.1

executeCall

public void executeCall()
                 throws Exception

Deprecated. no replacement

Do whatever it takes to execute the call.

Throws:

Exception - if a general exception occurs.

Since:

JDK1.1
