Java Enterprise in a Nutshell, Second Edition

Name

HomeHandle

Synopsis

All home handle objects implement this interface. A home handle represents a persistent reference to an EJB home interface, obtained by calling getHomeHandle() on the EJB home. The handle can be serialized/deserialized and used to obtain a reference to its corresponding EJB home. Home handles are only supported for remote EJB home interfaces.

// Public Instance Methods
   public abstract EJBHome getEJBHome(
        ) throws java.rmi.RemoteException;  
}
