Interface ActivationInstantiator

All Superinterfaces:

Remote

All Known Implementing Classes:

ActivationGroup, ActivationGroup_Stub

public interface ActivationInstantiator
extends Remote

An ActivationInstantiator is responsible for creating instances of "activatable" objects. A concrete subclass of ActivationGroup implements the newInstance method to handle creating objects within the group.

Since:

1.2

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
MarshalledObject<? extends Remote>	newInstance(ActivationID id, ActivationDesc desc) The activator calls an instantiator's newInstance method in order to recreate in that group an object with the activation identifier, id, and descriptor, desc.

Method Detail

newInstance

MarshalledObject<? extends Remote> newInstance(ActivationID id,
                                               ActivationDesc desc)
                                               throws ActivationException,
                                                      RemoteException

The activator calls an instantiator's newInstance method in order to recreate in that group an object with the activation identifier, id, and descriptor, desc. The instantiator is responsible for:

• determining the class for the object using the descriptor's getClassName method,
• loading the class from the code location obtained from the descriptor (using the getLocation method),
• creating an instance of the class by invoking the special "activation" constructor of the object's class that takes two arguments: the object's ActivationID, and the MarshalledObject containing object specific initialization data, and
• returning a MarshalledObject containing the stub for the remote object it created

Parameters:

id - the object's activation identifier

desc - the object's descriptor

Returns:

a marshalled object containing the serialized representation of remote object's stub

Throws:

ActivationException - if object activation fails

RemoteException - if remote call fails

Since:

1.2
