All Superinterfaces:

java.rmi.Remote

public interface RuntimeChannel
extends java.rmi.Remote

An RMI object that facilities communication between runtimes using the WebLogic clustered JNDI tree. This class and any referenced classes must be on the WebLogic server classpath as required by RMI dynamic stub generation.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
java.lang.String	getRuntimeName() Returns the runtime name.
boolean	isActive() Returns true if the runtime referred to by this channel is active.
void	publish(byte[] payload) Publishes a message to the runtime.
void	send(byte[] payload) Sends one-way command to the runtime.
byte[]	sendSynchronous(byte[] payload) Sends a request-response command to the runtime.
