java.lang.Object
java.rmi.server.RemoteObject
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable,- Remote
- Direct Known Subclasses:
- RemoteObjectInvocationHandler,- RemoteServer,- RemoteStub
The 
RemoteObject class implements the
 java.lang.Object behavior for remote objects.
 RemoteObject provides the remote semantics of Object by
 implementing methods for hashCode, equals, and toString.- Since:
- 1.1

Method Details- 
getRefReturns the remote reference for the remote object.Note: The object returned from this method may be an instance of an implementation-specific class. The RemoteObjectclass ensures serialization portability of its instances' remote references through the behavior of its customwriteObjectandreadObjectmethods. An instance ofRemoteRefshould not be serialized outside of itsRemoteObjectwrapper instance or the result may be unportable.- Returns:
- remote reference for the remote object
- Since:
- 1.2
 
- 
toStubReturns the stub for the remote objectobjpassed as a parameter. This operation is only valid after the object has been exported.- Parameters:
- obj- the remote object whose stub is needed
- Returns:
- the stub for the remote object, obj.
- Throws:
- NoSuchObjectException- if the stub for the remote object could not be found.
- Since:
- 1.2
 
- 
hashCodepublic int hashCode()Returns a hashcode for a remote object. Two remote object stubs that refer to the same remote object will have the same hash code (in order to support remote objects as keys in hash tables).
- 
equalsCompares two remote objects for equality. Returns a boolean that indicates whether this remote object is equivalent to the specified Object. This method is used when a remote object is stored in a hashtable. If the specified Object is not itself an instance of RemoteObject, then this method delegates by returning the result of invoking theequalsmethod of its parameter with this remote object as the argument.
- 
toStringReturns a String that represents the value of this remote object.
