Abstract
A method, computer program product, and/or system for facilitating communication between an origin machine and a target machine are provided. To facilitate communication, a reference to an original object of the origin machine is constructed within a remote object services level. Then reference is passed within the remote object services level from the origin machine to the target machine. The passing of the reference, in turn, causes a creation of a proxy and an invocation of a target method on the target machine.
Claims18
A computer implemented method for facilitating communication between an origin system and a target system comprising:
- constructing, by a processor disposed on the origin system, within a remote object services level a reference to an original object of the origin system;
- passing within the remote object services level the reference from the origin system to the target system;
- and
- in response to passing the reference, causing an invocation of a target method on the target system that enables a receipt of a proxy by the origin system from the target system,
- wherein the target method is not configured to accept arguments.
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions facilitating communication between an origin system and a target system embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform:
- constructing within a remote object services level a reference to an original object of the origin system;
- passing within the remote object services level the reference from the origin system to the target system;
- and
- in response to passing the reference, causing an invocation of a target method on the target system that enables a receipt of a proxy by the origin system from the target system,
- wherein the target method is not configured to accept arguments.
A system comprising:
- a memory having computer readable instructions;
- and
- a processor for executing the computer readable instructions for facilitating communication between an origin machine and a target machine, the computer readable instructions including:
- constructing within a remote object services level a reference to an original object of the origin machine;
- passing within the remote object services level the reference from the origin machine to the target machine;
- and
- in response to passing the reference, causing an invocation of a target method on the target system that enables a receipt of a proxy by the origin system from the target system,
- wherein the target method is not configured to accept arguments.
