Class SerializableInputStream

java.lang.Object
  java.io.InputStream
      com.healthmarketscience.rmiio.SerializableInputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

RemoteClient, Closeable, Serializable

public class SerializableInputStream
extends InputStream
implements Serializable, RemoteClient

An additional layer around a RemoteInputStream which makes it Serializable and an InputStream. In general, this extra layer is not necessary and I do not recommend using this class. However, in the odd case where the callee really wants to get something which is already an InputStream, this class can be useful. This is basically just a wrapper around a call to RemoteInputStreamClient.wrap(com.healthmarketscience.rmiio.RemoteInputStream).

Method Detail

setRemoteRetry

public void setRemoteRetry(RemoteRetry retry)

Description copied from interface: RemoteClient

Sets the client side RemoteRetry policy to use for the underlying remote communication layer. For most client side implementations, this method must be called before any other calls on this client object (any calls to this method after one of those methods is called will have no affect).

Specified by:

setRemoteRetry in interface RemoteClient

Parameters:

retry - the new RemoteRetry policy to use for remote communication. null causes the RemoteClient.DEFAULT_RETRY policy to be used.
