there is no difference except you have to do the remote addressing to download the stub to client machine,
alternatively, you can generate stubs and make it accessible to the client locally,

either way, you also need remote addressing for the stub to find the server,

i think that we shouldn't make stubs being available to clients locally.i used Dynamic class loading method  and i want them(clients) to download stubs from server.
i also has another problem.could you inform me about using threads in rmi.i want two have more than one client.

 
Answer #3    Answered By: Tamara Nguyen     Answered On: Dec 02

regarding how to access the stub, as I said, the choice is yours,

regarding the thread, my knowledge on RMI is dusty, so I hope the flashback diverts to accurate data. Clients will have concurrent access to single server instance so you do not need explicit threading functionality, each thread will be created by the server once a client connection has established, however you need "synchronization" over the shared data or instance "variables" and that is because server provides point-to-point communication to the bounded server object. how you do that is up to yourself, but there are plenty of examples on the web, but once again, that threading is done by the server to allow multiple simultaneous client calls, (if server is configured to do so, which I guess, that is the default configuration)

during running a rmi  code i encountered this problem
java.rmi.MarshalException: error marshalling a
rguments; nested exception is:
java.io.NotSerializableException: BankManagerImpl


could anyone help  me plz?

 
Answer #5    Answered By: Sean Grant     Answered On: Dec 02

the class BankManagerImpl is not serializable. Have you declared java.io.Serializable on this class?

 
Answer #6    Answered By: Huette Miller     Answered On: Dec 02

It seems that BankManagerImpl class is not Serializable, so make it
Serializable by implementing java.io.Serializable:

public class BankManagerImpl implements java.io.Serializable { ... }

 
Answer #7    Answered By: Maria Miller     Answered On: Dec 02

Another Problem:
you shouldn't expose xxxxxImp classes remotely.
you probably have something like this:
public interface BankManager{
public void deduct(int account_id,int amount);
}

public class BankManagerImp implements BankManager{
public void deduct(int account_id,int amount){
// some implementation code
}
}

u usually want to expose the interface(BankManager) on rmi  and not
BankManagerImp.
the imp class does stuff like talking to DB(hibernate, jdbc, jpa,etc) and should
run on the container...
implementing serializable will make the first error go away, but u'll probably
run into other problems.

i have this classes

//TableTalk.java -- a remote interface
