public interface ReceiverProxy

extends java.io.Serializable

This class contains the methods that are to be implemented by a service's receiver proxy. These methods provide a standard interface for initializing, connecting, disconnecting, event handling, and communicating through an arbitrary transport protocol with a SenderProxy. This interface also provides a standardization that can be used by generators for specific protocols to generate a receiver proxy for a given interface.

Method Summary

void	connect() This method connects the ReceiverProxy to the network.
void	disconnect() This method disconnects the ReceiverProxy from the network.
void	setServiceImpl(java.lang.Object serviceImpl) This method is used to set the service implementation of the ReceiverProxy

Method Detail

setServiceImpl

public void setServiceImpl(java.lang.Object serviceImpl)
                    throws java.rmi.RemoteException

This method is used to set the service implementation of the ReceiverProxy

java.rmi.RemoteException - if an exception occurs. This should never happen.

connect

public void connect()
             throws java.rmi.RemoteException

This method connects the ReceiverProxy to the network. This call will make the service available to eligible SenderProxies.

disconnect

public void disconnect()
                throws java.rmi.RemoteException
