RMI object used to forward an MBeanServer request from a client
to its MBeanServer implementation on the server side.  There is one
Remote object implementing this interface for each remote client
connected to an RMI connector.


User code does not usually refer to this interface.  It is
specified as part of the public API so that different
implementations of that API will interoperate.


To ensure that client parameters will be deserialized at the server side with the correct classloader, client parameters such as parameters used to invoke a method are wrapped in a MarshalledObject. An implementation of this interface must first get the appropriate class loader for the operation and its target, then deserialize the marshalled parameters with this classloader. Except as noted, a parameter that is a MarshalledObject or MarshalledObject[]
must not be null; the behavior is unspecified if it is.


Class loading aspects are detailed in the

JMX Specification, version 1.4 PDF document.


Most methods in this interface parallel methods in the MBeanServerConnection interface. Where an aspect of the behavior of a method is not specified here, it is the same as in the corresponding MBeanServerConnection method.

Since:1.5

    // Special Handling of Notifications -------------------------------------

    
Handles the method MBeanServerConnection.addNotificationListener(ObjectName, NotificationListener, NotificationFilter, Object).


Register for notifications from the given MBeans that match the given filters. The remote client can subsequently retrieve the notifications using the 
fetchNotifications method.


For each listener, the original
NotificationListener and handback are
kept on the client side; in order for the client to be able to
identify them, the server generates and returns a unique
listenerID.  This listenerID is
forwarded with the Notifications to the remote
client.


If any one of the given (name, filter) pairs cannot be
registered, then the operation fails with an exception, and no
names or filters are registered.


Params:
  • names – the ObjectNames identifying the
MBeans emitting the Notifications.
  • filters – an array of marshalled representations of the
NotificationFilters.  Elements of this array can
be null.
  • delegationSubjects – the Subjects on behalf
of which the listeners are being added.  Elements of this array
can be null.  Also, the delegationSubjects
parameter itself can be null, which is equivalent to an array
of null values with the same size as the names and
filters arrays.
Throws:
  • IllegalArgumentException – if names or
filters is null, or if names contains
a null element, or if the three arrays do not all have the same
size.
  • ClassCastException – if one of the elements of
filters unmarshalls as a non-null object that is
not a NotificationFilter.
  • InstanceNotFoundException – if one of the
names does not correspond to any registered MBean.
  • SecurityException – if, for one of the MBeans, the
client, or the delegated Subject if any, does not have
permission to add a listener.
  • IOException – if a general communication exception occurred.
Returns:an array of listenerIDs identifying the
local listeners.  This array has the same number of elements as
the parameters.

Retrieves notifications from the connector server.  This
method can block until there is at least one notification or
until the specified timeout is reached.  The method can also
return at any time with zero notifications.


A notification can be included in the result if its sequence
number is no less than clientSequenceNumber and this client has registered at least one listener for the MBean generating the notification, with a filter that accepts the notification. Each listener that is interested in the notification is identified by an Integer ID that was returned by addNotificationListeners(ObjectName[], MarshalledObject[], Subject[]).


Params:
  • clientSequenceNumber – the first sequence number that the
client is interested in.  If negative, it is interpreted as
meaning the sequence number that the next notification will
have.
  • maxNotifications – the maximum number of different
notifications to return.  The TargetedNotification
array in the returned NotificationResult can have
more elements than this if the same notification appears more
than once.  The behavior is unspecified if this parameter is
negative.
  • timeout – the maximum time in milliseconds to wait for a
notification to arrive.  This can be 0 to indicate that the
method should not wait if there are no notifications, but
should return at once.  It can be Long.MAX_VALUE
to indicate that there is no timeout.  The behavior is
unspecified if this parameter is negative.
Throws:
  • IOException – if a general communication exception occurred.
Returns:A NotificationResult.
