public interface RMIClientSocketFactoryAnRMIClientSocketFactoryinstance is used by the RMI runtime in order to obtain client sockets for RMI calls. A remote object can be associated with anRMIClientSocketFactorywhen it is created/exported via the constructors orexportObjectmethods ofjava.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObjectandjava.rmi.activation.Activatable.An
RMIClientSocketFactoryinstance associated with a remote object will be downloaded to clients when the remote object's reference is transmitted in an RMI call. ThisRMIClientSocketFactorywill be used to create connections to the remote object for remote method calls.An
RMIClientSocketFactoryinstance 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 be serializable and should implement
Object.equals(java.lang.Object)to returntruewhen passed an instance that represents the same (functionally equivalent) client socket factory, andfalseotherwise (and it should also implementObject.hashCode()consistently with itsObject.equalsimplementation).- Since:
