Once again, we see a payoff from our earlier discussion of RMI.
The concepts we discussed in RMI are the backbone of EJBs: stubs, skeletons,
and remote interfaces.
- local/remote transparency is the term we use to describe the process of a stub and server implementation implementing the same interface, and the stub marshalling the data to call the identical method on the server, so that the client calling the stub appears to call the server directly.
