Hi all
I used RMI for my Networking. The book I followed says that I have to start rmi registry by using the command

It also says I can start registry inside program. But that books doesn�t says how.
But my program works fine even with out starting the registry. I tested it even in two different machines and it works fine. But I am not sure whether I have to start the registry. Any help? Am I doing something wrong?
2. If I have to start the registry then how can I do it using code?
Thanks in advance
Roy.

Hi Roy.

You can start the RMI registry, on the server side, something like below.

The fact that you say your app works even without that sounds a bit worrying. Something is wrong somewhere, or you've started it without knowing. Are you sure you're testing it in server/client mode?
My suggestion is to make sure you understand how the RMI system works. Study it up a bit. Most probably you'd need that info too for the exam.
Hope you come right.

Hi Jacques
Thanks for your quick reply.
I have the codes in the same way you said.
I didn�t know that

will start the registry. I thought createRegistry(port), just creates the registry for us and we have to start the registry separately.
If that is the case then I am all set for now(I think).
Thanks a lot again. You saved me from lots of worry. I have been searching for an answer in all the places for last couple of days.
Roy.

Glad I could help.
