6.3 The RegistryHandler Interface

---

Note - The RegistryHandler interface is deprecated in JDK1.2. In JDK1.1, it was only used internally by the RMI implementation and was not for application use.

---

package java.rmi.registry;

public interface RegistryHandler {
	Registry registryStub(String host, int port)
		throws java.rmi.RemoteException, 
		java.rmi.UnknownHostException;
	Registry registryImpl(int port) 
		throws java.rmi.RemoteException;
}

The method registryStub returns a stub for contacting a remote registry on the specified host and port.

The method registryImpl constructs and exports a registry on the specified port. The port must be nonzero.
