    摘要: The method and apparatus for generating and employing a run-time generated stub to reference an object in an object oriented system. This method and apparatus represents in a first virtual machine a remote object implemented in a second virtual machine by employing a stub class. An object reference is sent by the second virtual machine and received by the first virtual machine. The object reference includes an interface descriptor that identifies the interface(s) of the remote object and an object handle that identifies the remote object. At run-time, the information associated with the remote object is transformed into a stub class that represents the remote object and implements only those interfaces identified by the interface descriptor and also defined by the first virtual machine. After the stub class is created, an instance of that stub class is generated and provided to the first virtual machine. In an alternative embodiment, an interface specific stub is created for each interface that is identified by the interface descriptor and defined by the first virtual machine. The interface specific stub is created at compile time. A delegator stub class is created at run-time that delegates to the interface specific stub(s).

    摘要: A stub retrieval and loading subsystem is disclosed for use in connection with a remote method invocation system. The stub retrieval and loading subsystem controls the retrieval and loading of a stub for a remote method, into an execution environment, to facilitate invocation of the remote method by a program executing in the execution environment. The stub retrieval subsystem includes a stub retriever for initiating a retrieval of the stub and stub loader for, when the stub is received by the stub retriever, loading the stub into the execution environment, thereby to make the stub available for use in remote invocation of the remote method. In one embodiment, the stub retrieval and loading subsystem effects the retrieval and loading for a program operating in one address space provided by one computer, of stub class instances to effect the remote invocation of methods which are provided by objects operating in another address space, which may be provided by the same computer or a different computer.

    摘要: A database system wherein one or more entry databases store a plurality of entries. Each entry is of a given type that defines the fields of the entry. Each of the fields contains or identifies an object with associated attributes or data. The type of each entry may further define behavior in the form of methods the entry is configured to implement. An entry type which is a subtype of another inherits all of the fields and behavior of its supertype, and contains additional fields and/or defines new/modified behavior. Entries may be expressed in a Java.TM. class of the Java.TM. programming language. The database system may further employ a search engine which allows queries to be made upon entries in the database. In one implementation, the queries include a read operation, a take operation, and a notify operation. Each query request includes a command indicating the type of operation, and a template which is an entry object having some or all of its fields set to specified values that must be matched exactly. Other fields of the template entry may be specified as wildcards, whose values do not matter. The search engine may further be configured to create an index for entries having characteristics which are commonly specified by queries. Thus, the search engine may detect a pattern of usage and create an index which points to entries having attributes which are commonly specified by received templates. In this manner, expedient entry searching may be accommodated.
