Class cam.codegen.CreateRMIWrappers 

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----cam.codegen.CreateRMIWrappers
public class CreateRMIWrappers
extends Object
A class for creating an RMI interface and RMI server wrapper classes. See NetApp Wrappers for documentation about how to construct distributed applications using these wrapper classes. 
#   Input  <-- className
#    
#   Output --> classNameRI (an RMI interface)
#          --> classNameRS (an RMI server class)
The creation of the wrapper classes must be re-done every time the method interface to the input class changes.

The JDK utility rmic must be applied to the RMI server class after its construction. The result of that operation will yield the classes classNameRS_Skel.class and classNameRI_Stub.class

Returns:
a String array, each element being a line of the class code.
o createRMIinterface 
 public String[] createRMIinterface()
Creates the RMI interface class code.

Returns:
a String array, each element being a line of the class code.
o main 
 public static void main(String args[])
Command line invocation routine. Creates the the interface and server classes. Compiles the interface and server classes.

Parameters:
args[] - Target class; specified with a full classname (e.g. including a package prefix if any).
