Interface RmiDataDepositing

All Superinterfaces:

Remote, RmiCaster

All Known Implementing Classes:

SensorRepository

public interface RmiDataDepositing
extends RmiCaster

An interface to allow late-commers to register to a repository. The RmiDataCollecting instance calls the addRmiDataCollector(stella.rmi.RmiDataCollecting) method as it goes online. Deregistering at the RmiDataCollecting instance as it goes offline is nice, but not necessary, as the RmiDataCollecting instance will remove it from its data collector list anyhow if the remote instance is not valid any more.

Field Summary

static String

NAMING_EXTENSION An optional binding name extension.

Method Summary

boolean	addRmiDataCollector(RmiDataCollecting latecommer) Add an RmiDataCollecting instance to this rmi-enabled data depositing instance, normally a repositroy.
boolean	removeRmiDataCollector(RmiDataCollecting latecommer) Removes an RmiDataCollecting instance from data delivering.
