Foil 6 Skeletons

From Overview of Distributed Objects and RMI in Java 1.1 ARL Database Tutorial and CPS616 -- February 98. by Nancy McCracken


On the server side, a skeleton object receives the packet of information from the client stub and manages the call to the actual method:
  • It unmarshals the parameters.
  • It calls the desired method on the real remote object that lies on the server.
  • It captures the return value or exception of the call on the server.
  • It marshals that value.
  • It sends a package consisting of the return values and any exceptions.
