If the call completes successfully, the remote object should
be able to accept incoming calls from clients.

Params:

  • data – information necessary to export the object
Throws:
  • RemoteException – if an exception occurs attempting
to export the object (e.g., stub class could not be found)
Returns:the stub for the remote object
