public abstract class RemoteObject
extends Object
implements Remote, Serializable

The RemoteObject class implements the java.lang.Object behavior for remote objects. RemoteObject provides the remote semantics of Object by implementing methods for hashCode, equals, and toString.

##

ref

RemoteObject()
  Create a remote object.
RemoteObject(RemoteRef)
  Create a remote object, initialized with the specified remote reference.

##

equals(Object)
  Compares two remote objects for equality.
hashCode()

RemoteObject

     protected RemoteObject(RemoteRef newref)

  Create a remote object, initialized with the specified remote reference.

##

hashCode

     public int hashCode()

  Returns a hashcode for a remote object. Two remote object stubs that refer to the same remote object will have the same hash code (in order to support remote objects as keys in hash tables).

  Overrides:
    hashCode in class Object
  See Also:
    Hashtable

equals

     public boolean equals(Object obj)

  Compares two remote objects for equality. Returns a boolean that indicates whether this remote object is equivalent to the specified Object. This method is used when a remote object is stored in a hashtable.

  Parameters:
    obj - the Object to compare with
  Returns:
    true if these Objects are equal; false otherwise.
  Overrides:
    equals in class Object
  See Also:
    Hashtable

toString

     public String toString()

  Returns a String that represents the value of this remote object.
