Method Summary

EJBHome	readEJBHome(java.io.ObjectInputStream objectInputStream) Deserialize the EJBHome reference corresponding to a HomeHandle.
EJBObject	readEJBObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream objectInputStream) Deserialize the EJBObject reference corresponding to a Handle.
void	writeEJBHome(EJBHome ejbHome, java.io.ObjectOutputStream objectOutputStream) Serialize the EJBHome reference corresponding to a HomeHandle.
void	writeEJBObject(EJBObject ejbObject, java.io.ObjectOutputStream objectOutputStream) Serialize the EJBObject reference corresponding to a Handle.

Method Detail

writeEJBObject

void writeEJBObject(EJBObject ejbObject,
                    java.io.ObjectOutputStream objectOutputStream)
                    throws java.io.IOException

Serialize the EJBObject reference corresponding to a Handle. This method is called from the writeObject method of portable Handle implementation classes. The ostream object is the same object that was passed in to the Handle class's writeObject.

Parameters:

ejbObject - The EJBObject reference to be serialized.

objectOutputStream - The output stream.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - The EJBObject could not be serialized because of a system-level failure.

readEJBObject

EJBObject readEJBObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream objectInputStream)
                        throws java.io.IOException,
                               java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Deserialize the EJBObject reference corresponding to a Handle. readEJBObject is called from the readObject method of portable Handle implementation classes. The istream object is the same object that was passed in to the Handle class's readObject. When readEJBObject is called, istream must point to the location in the stream at which the EJBObject reference can be read. The container must ensure that the EJBObject reference is capable of performing invocations immediately after deserialization.

Parameters:

objectInputStream - The input stream.

Returns:

The deserialized EJBObject reference.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - The EJBObject could not be deserialized because of a system-level failure.

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException - The EJBObject could not be deserialized because some class could not be found.

writeEJBHome

void writeEJBHome(EJBHome ejbHome,
                  java.io.ObjectOutputStream objectOutputStream)
                  throws java.io.IOException

Serialize the EJBHome reference corresponding to a HomeHandle. This method is called from the writeObject method of portable HomeHandle implementation classes. The ostream object is the same object that was passed in to the Handle class's writeObject.

Parameters:

ejbHome - The EJBHome reference to be serialized.

objectOutputStream - The output stream.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - The EJBObject could not be serialized because of a system-level failure.

readEJBHome

EJBHome readEJBHome(java.io.ObjectInputStream objectInputStream)
                    throws java.io.IOException,
                           java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Deserialize the EJBHome reference corresponding to a HomeHandle. readEJBHome is called from the readObject method of portable HomeHandle implementation classes. The istream object is the same object that was passed in to the HomeHandle class's readObject. When readEJBHome is called, istream must point to the location in the stream at which the EJBHome reference can be read. The container must ensure that the EJBHome reference is capable of performing invocations immediately after deserialization.

Parameters:

objectInputStream - The input stream.

Returns:

The deserialized EJBHome reference.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - The EJBHome could not be deserialized because of a system-level failure.

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException - The EJBHome could not be deserialized because some class could not be found.
