RMI Faqs

 

  1. What is remote method invocation?
  2. When should I use remote method invocation?
  3. Why can't I access RMI from C++?
  4. Why won't my RMI implementation run under Java 2?
  5. Should I use CORBA in preference to RMI? Or DCOM? Or what?
  6. When I try to bind my RMI server to the RMI registry I get an error "Connection refused" 
  7. I don't want to run a separate process for the RMI registry, since I only have the one RMI server process, and should always be running. Can I do this? 
  8. Does RMI use HTTP? 
  9. How do I make a class a RemoteObject if it can't extend Unicast Remote Server because it already extends another class?
