java.rmi.registry
Interface Registry

public interface Registry

extends Remote

For obtaining references to remote objects, RMI provides a simple remote object registry interface, implemented by RMI's rmiregistry, that provides methods for storing and retrieving remote object references. The java.rmi.Naming class provides methods to access a remote object registry using URL-formatted names to specify in a compact format both the remote registry along with the name for the remote object.

Typically a "registry" exists on every node that allows RMI connections to servers on that node. A registry on a particular node contains a transient database that maps names to remote objects. When a registry starts up, the registry database is empty. The names stored in the registry are pure and are not parsed. A service storing itself in the registry may want to prefix its name of the service by a package name (although not required), to reduce name collisions in the registry.

To create a registry that runs in an application, use one of the LocateRegistry.createRegistry methods. To obtain a reference to a remote object registry, use one of the LocateRegistry.getRegistry methods.
