Class JNDIServer

java.lang.Object
  org.sapia.ubik.rmi.naming.remote.JNDIServer

public class JNDIServer
extends java.lang.Object

This class implements a JNDIServer by exporting a root javax.naming.Context as a remote object. It has the following characteristics:

• It sends notifications to new clients that appear on the network, allowing these clients to benefit from the dynamic discovery of JNDI servers.
• It sends notifications to clients every time a service is bound to them. This allows clients to benefit from the dynamic discovry of new services that appear on the network.

To benefit from these features, clients must connect to this server by using a RemoteInitialContextFactory.
