  +--com.webcab.ejb.math.optimization.LocalFunctionDelivery

All Implemented Interfaces:

FunctionDelivery, Serializable

public class LocalFunctionDelivery

extends Object

implements FunctionDelivery

This class assists the delivery of a user-defined class instance over from the client-side to the J2EE server-side. When sent across the network to the Application Server an instance of this class will guarantee the existence of the user-defined class to the EJB container. This means that you may send an instance of a user-defined class (say a function) to an EJB component without manually publishing the class on the server.

This class is called `Local' because as soon as the user-defined object is delivered to the EJB component, it becomes local relative to the EJB container.

Note: This class supports only one level of user-defined classes. This means that instances of user-defined classes implementing user-defined interfaces, extending another user-defined class, or defining fields of a user-defined type will determine a ClassNotFoundException on the server-side.
