All Implemented Interfaces:

Direct Known Subclasses:

    public class RmiClientInterceptor

extends RemoteInvocationBasedAccessor
implements MethodInterceptor

`MethodInterceptor` for accessing conventional RMI services or RMI invokers. The service URL must be a valid RMI URL (e.g. "rmi://localhost:1099/myservice").

RMI invokers work at the RmiInvocationHandler level, needing only one stub for any service. Service interfaces do not have to extend `java.rmi.Remote` or throw `java.rmi.RemoteException`. Spring's unchecked RemoteAccessException will be thrown on remote invocation failure. Of course, in and out parameters have to be serializable.

With conventional RMI services, this invoker is typically used with the RMI service interface. Alternatively, this invoker can also proxy a remote RMI service with a matching non-RMI business interface, i.e. an interface that mirrors the RMI service methods but does not declare RemoteExceptions. In the latter case, RemoteExceptions thrown by the RMI stub will automatically get converted to Spring's unchecked RemoteAccessException.

Constructor Detail

### RmiClientInterceptor

    public RmiClientInterceptor()

Method Detail

### setLookupStubOnStartup

    public void setLookupStubOnStartup(boolean lookupStubOnStartup)

  Set whether to look up the RMI stub on startup. Default is "true".

  Can be turned off to allow for late start of the RMI server. In this case, the RMI stub will be fetched on first access.

  See Also:
    `setCacheStub(boolean)`

### setCacheStub

    public void setCacheStub(boolean cacheStub)

  Set whether to cache the RMI stub once it has been located. Default is "true".

  Can be turned off to allow for hot restart of the RMI server. In this case, the RMI stub will be fetched for each invocation.

  See Also:
    `setLookupStubOnStartup(boolean)`

### setRefreshStubOnConnectFailure

    public void setRefreshStubOnConnectFailure(boolean refreshStubOnConnectFailure)

  Set whether to refresh the RMI stub on connect failure. Default is "false".

  Can be turned on to allow for hot restart of the RMI server. If a cached RMI stub throws an RMI exception that indicates a remote connect failure, a fresh proxy will be fetched and the invocation will be retried.

  See Also:
    `ConnectException`, `ConnectIOException`, `NoSuchObjectException`

### setRegistryClientSocketFactory

    public void setRegistryClientSocketFactory(RMIClientSocketFactory registryClientSocketFactory)

  Set a custom RMI client socket factory to use for accessing the RMI registry.

  See Also:
    `RMIClientSocketFactory`, `LocateRegistry.getRegistry(String, int, RMIClientSocketFactory)`

### afterPropertiesSet

    public void afterPropertiesSet()

  Description copied from interface: `InitializingBean`
  Invoked by a BeanFactory after it has set all bean properties supplied (and satisfied BeanFactoryAware and ApplicationContextAware).

  This method allows the bean instance to perform initialization only possible when all bean properties have been set and to throw an exception in the event of misconfiguration.

  Specified by:
    `afterPropertiesSet` in interface `InitializingBean`
  Overrides:
    `afterPropertiesSet` in class `UrlBasedRemoteAccessor`

### prepare

    public void prepare()
                 throws RemoteLookupFailureException

  Fetches RMI stub on startup, if necessary.

  Throws:
    `RemoteLookupFailureException` - if RMI stub creation failed
  See Also:
    `setLookupStubOnStartup(boolean)`, `lookupStub()`

### lookupStub

    protected Remote lookupStub()
                         throws RemoteLookupFailureException

  Create the RMI stub, typically by looking it up.

  Called on interceptor initialization if "cacheStub" is "true"; else called for each invocation by `getStub()`.

  The default implementation looks up the service URL via `java.rmi.Naming`. This can be overridden in subclasses.

  Returns:
    the RMI stub to store in this interceptor
  Throws:
    `RemoteLookupFailureException` - if RMI stub creation failed
  See Also:
    `setCacheStub(boolean)`, `Naming.lookup(java.lang.String)`

### getStub

    protected Remote getStub()
                      throws RemoteLookupFailureException

  Return the RMI stub to use. Called for each invocation.

  The default implementation returns the stub created on initialization, if any. Else, it invokes `lookupStub()` to get a new stub for each invocation. This can be overridden in subclasses, for example in order to cache a stub for a given amount of time before recreating it, or to test the stub whether it is still alive.

  Returns:
    the RMI stub to use for an invocation
  Throws:
    `RemoteLookupFailureException` - if RMI stub creation failed
  See Also:
    `lookupStub()`

### invoke

    public Object invoke(MethodInvocation invocation)
                  throws Throwable

  Fetches an RMI stub and delegates to `doInvoke`. If configured to refresh on connect failure, it will call `refreshAndRetry(org.aopalliance.intercept.MethodInvocation)` on corresponding RMI exceptions.

  Specified by:
    `invoke` in interface `MethodInterceptor`
  Throws:
    `Throwable`
  See Also:
    `getStub()`, `doInvoke(MethodInvocation, Remote)`, `refreshAndRetry(org.aopalliance.intercept.MethodInvocation)`, `ConnectException`, `ConnectIOException`, `NoSuchObjectException`

### isConnectFailure

    protected boolean isConnectFailure(RemoteException ex)

  Determine whether the given RMI exception indicates a connect failure.

  The default implementation delegates to `RmiClientInterceptorUtils.isConnectFailure(java.rmi.RemoteException)`.

  Parameters:
    `ex` - the RMI exception to check
  Returns:
    whether the exception should be treated as connect failure

### refreshAndRetry

    protected Object refreshAndRetry(MethodInvocation invocation)
                              throws Throwable

  Refresh the RMI stub and retry the given invocation. Called by invoke on connect failure.

  Parameters:
    `invocation` - the AOP method invocation
  Returns:
    the invocation result, if any
  Throws:
    `Throwable` - in case of invocation failure
  See Also:
    `invoke(org.aopalliance.intercept.MethodInvocation)`

### doInvoke

    protected Object doInvoke(MethodInvocation invocation,
                              Remote stub)
                       throws Throwable

  Perform the given invocation on the given RMI stub.

  Parameters:
    `invocation` - the AOP method invocation
    `stub` - the RMI stub to invoke
  Returns:
    the invocation result, if any
  Throws:
    `Throwable` - in case of invocation failure

### doInvoke

    protected Object doInvoke(MethodInvocation methodInvocation,
                              RmiInvocationHandler invocationHandler)
                       throws RemoteException,
                              NoSuchMethodException,
                              IllegalAccessException,
                              InvocationTargetException

  Apply the given AOP method invocation to the given `RmiInvocationHandler`.

  The default implementation delegates to `RemoteInvocationBasedAccessor.createRemoteInvocation(org.aopalliance.intercept.MethodInvocation)`.

  Parameters:
    `methodInvocation` - the current AOP method invocation
    `invocationHandler` - the RmiInvocationHandler to apply the invocation to
  Returns:
    the invocation result
  Throws:
    `RemoteException` - in case of communication errors
    `NoSuchMethodException` - if the method name could not be resolved
    `IllegalAccessException` - if the method could not be accessed
    `InvocationTargetException` - if the method invocation resulted in an exception

    `RemoteInvocation`
