The Java RMI (Remote Method Invocation) code demonstrates a simple example of reversing a string remotely. It consists of four components:
- Remote Interface (
ReverseInterface): Declares a remote methodreverseStringto reverse a string. - Implementation Class (
Reverse): Provides the implementation of thereverseStringmethod. - Server Class (
ReverseServer): Starts the RMI server and binds theReverseobject to the RMI registry. - Client Class (
ReverseClient): Connects to the RMI registry, invokes thereverseStringmethod remotely, and displays the reversed string.
-
Compile the Code: Compile the Java source files (
ReverseInterface.java,Reverse.java,ReverseServer.java,ReverseClient.java) using thejavaccommand. -
Start the RMI Registry: Open a terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory containing the compiled
.classfiles, and start the RMI registry using thestart rmiregistry 1099command. -
Run the Server: In the same terminal or command prompt, run the server using the
java ReverseServercommand. -
Run the Client: Open a new terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory containing the compiled
.classfiles, and run the client using thejava ReverseClient "HelloWorld"command (replace "HelloWorld" with the string you want to reverse).
By following these steps, you can execute the Java RMI code to reverse a string remotely.
