Interface Service.Proxy
- All Superinterfaces:
Serializable
- Enclosing interface:
Service
This class is both used by servers to install proxies in a client's JVM,
and by clients to install proxies in a server's JVM. A proxy is a
serialisable object that on arrival at the target JVM, is initialised
with a local to the service object, on which it can communicate. A
service would send proxies to offload client processing and storage
needs. A client would send proxies to perform highly interactive
operation, on potentially large datasets.

Method Details

init
called by the client on receiving a proxy object. The proxy can then prepare itself for operation. However, this method should return quickly; therefore, proxies requiring lengthy initialisation times should perform such work in an internally created thread.- Parameters:
service
- a reference to the service object, local for client proxies, remote for service proxies.
