Skeleton (Java Platform SE 6)

This documentation differs from the official API. Jadeite adds extra features to the API including: variable font sizes, constructions examples, placeholders for classes and methods, and auto-generated “See Also” links. Additionally it is missing some items found in standard Javadoc documentation, including: generics type information, “Deprecated” tags and comments, “See Also” links, along with other minor differences. Please send any questions or feedback to bam@cs.cmu.edu.

DETAIL: FIELD | CONSTR | METHOD

java.rmi.server
interface Skeleton

public interface Skeleton

The Skeleton interface is used solely by the RMI implementation.

Every version 1.1 (and version 1.1 compatible skeletons generated in 1.2 using rmic -vcompat) skeleton class generated by the rmic stub compiler implements this interface. A skeleton for a remote object is a server-side entity that dispatches calls to the actual remote object implementation.

Method Summary
`void`	`dispatch(Remote obj, RemoteCall theCall, int opnum, long hash)` Unmarshals arguments, calls the actual remote object implementation, and marshals the return value or any exception.
`Operation[]`	`getOperations()` Returns the operations supported by the skeleton.
