Class RemoteRegistryFactory

java.lang.Object
  org.sapia.regis.remote.client.RemoteRegistryFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

RegistryFactory

public class RemoteRegistryFactory
extends Object
implements RegistryFactory

This class implements a factory that looks up a remote registry. The remote registry is a registry server stub that is made available on the network in one of two ways (using a RegistryExporter):

• by binding the registry stub to a specific port.
• by binding the registry stub under a given name, in a distributed Ubik JNDI server.

Then, an instance of this class is used to lookup the registry. The instance expects properties that specify either the JNDI name of the registry and connection URL of the JNDI server in which it is published; or the IP address/port to which the registry is bound.
