Interface RemotePropertyDefinition

All Superinterfaces:

Remote, RemoteItemDefinition

All Known Implementing Classes:

ServerPropertyDefinition

@Deprecated
public interface RemotePropertyDefinition
extends RemoteItemDefinition

Deprecated.

RMI support is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Jackrabbit; see Jira ticket JCR-4972 for more information.

Remote version of the JCR PropertyDefinition interface. Used by the ServerPropertyDefinition and ClientPropertyDefinition adapters to provide transparent RMI access to remote property definitions.

The methods in this interface are documented only with a reference to a corresponding PropertyDef method. The remote object will simply forward the method call to the underlying PropertyDef instance. Return values and possible exceptions are copied over the network. RMI errors are signaled with RemoteExceptions.

Note that the returned Value objects must be serializable and implemented using classes available on both the client and server side. The SerialValueFactory class provides two convenience methods to satisfy this requirement.
