| Overview"This book collects an astonishing range of Java RMI material,
suitable for any Java programmer regardless of experience with RMI.
The RMI novice will be able to run RMI programs without excessive
hair-pulling; the accomplished RMI programmer will find enough
techniques and explanations to improve the performance, capability,
or aesthetic quality of his or her code; and the RMI expert will be
able to perform great RMI-based hacks without the JDK source code.
If you're looking at this book because I directed you to it on the
RMI-USERS mailing list, then, yes, you've found the right
one!"
--from the foreword by Adrian Colley, RMI team, Sun Microsystems,
Ireland "Esmond is one of the long-time RMI 'gurus', accumulating a vast
and deep arsenal of practical knowledge in RMI uses, internals,
tricks and techniques. I am amazed he has packed so much in just
under 300 pages. An effective RMI or Jini developer should
absolutely have this reference in his collection."
--Brian Maso; consultant, DevelopMentor instructor, and Java Pro at
DevX.com" The definitive guide to remote method invocation in Java. This book provides an in-depth resource to all features of RMI,
building a firm, logical foundation for understanding and applying
the RMI technology. It contains detailed information about how to

running", while clarifying and extending the official information
found in the specification. The authors address many of the
real-world issues and unexpected features that you will encounter
whilst working with the technology. All you need to know about: understanding RMI in the context of Java and object-oriented
programming using RMI to create applications in networked environments
ranging from LANs to the Internet mastering serialization, remote interfaces, clients, the RMI
registry, servers, security, and mobile code applying advanced concepts e.g. activation, socket factories,
Internet firewalls, distributed garbage collection, and design
patterns working with alternatives or extensions to the standard RMI

Reader Reviews From Amazon (Ranked by 'Helpfulness') Average Customer Rating: based on 10 reviews. So disappointed. The book has no exampels, 2004-04-12 Reviewer rating: I bought this book because of its high rating among RMI developers. I was disappointed, becuase the book doesn't contain a single comprehensive example. I found it hard to learn without example. | The most advanced book on java RMI, 2003-11-08 Reviewer rating: This is the best and the most advanced book on java rmi PERIOD.IMO this should be your second book on rmi. | Best book on RMI, 2002-12-19 Reviewer rating: This is the best book on RMI that I have come across and I personally own 4 RMI books (about 10 if you count books that aren't solely on RMI). Contrary to a previous reviewer, this is NOT a beginners book. Beginners should get a more verbose RMI tutorial-like book. This is an advanced reference with very few examples, but it covers topics that you just can't find anywhere else, and furthermore, presents the topics in a detailed, to the point, lucid manner. There is no better RMI book for the advanced RMI developer who is wishing to learn the "under the hood" workings of RMI. | My least favorite book on RMI. Can you be too concise?, 2002-02-07 Reviewer rating: I have several books on RMI and looking for more. This is one in my collection and my least favorite. It is too reference-like, which you can find enough of on the developer's networks. Most notably it lacks continuity; it is basically a huge outline where each paragraph is the most concise definition for that topic. It makes a great reference for the experienced. | an in depth look at rmi, 2002-01-03 Reviewer rating: When first looking at the book, I was a bit disappointed from its small size. However, after reading just a couple of pages, I immediately realized that this book is excellent. I had some prior experience with rmi and this book has certainly improved my understanding of it. It also covers the serialization and I gained much knowledge from it. The only downside is the lack of full code samples.
Thus beginners to rmi might find it a little annoying. |
