Java Enterprise in a Nutshell, Second Edition

Name

RemoteObject

Synopsis

The RemoteObject class reimplements key Object methods for remote objects and maintains a RemoteRef object that is a handle to the actual remote object. The equals() implementation returns true only if the two referenced remote objects are equal. The hashCode() method is implemented so that every remote stub that refers to the same remote object will have the same hash code.
