Interface RMIServerSocketFactory
- All Known Implementing Classes:
-
RMISocketFactory
,SslRMIServerSocketFactory
public interface RMIServerSocketFactory
An RMIServerSocketFactory
instance is used by the RMI runtime in order to obtain server sockets for RMI calls. A remote object can be associated with an RMIServerSocketFactory
when it is created/exported via the constructors or exportObject
methods of java.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject
and java.rmi.activation.Activatable
.
An RMIServerSocketFactory
instance associated with a remote object is used to obtain the ServerSocket
used to accept incoming calls from clients.
An RMIServerSocketFactory
instance can also be associated with a remote object registry so that clients can use custom socket communication with a remote object registry.
An implementation of this interface should implement Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
to return true
when passed an instance that represents the same (functionally equivalent) server socket factory, and false
otherwise (and it should also implement Object.hashCode()
consistently with its Object.equals
implementation).
