Network Approaches
Your choice of RMI or serialized objects will not affect your grade, but no other approach is acceptable. In either case, the program must allow the user to specify the location of the database, and it must also accept an indication that a local database is to be used, in which case, the networking must be bypassed entirely.
1. "In either case" means while in network mode using either RMI or serialized objects. Right or Wrong?
2. What does the location of the database mean here? Is it an absolute path + file name to data file or just path? What are the possible values?
3. In network mode location of the database need to be provided by user. In non-network mode user need not provide database location. Right or wrong?
4. If Aplication is started in stand alone mode, can another gui started with "mode left out" (Just gui) connect to the database in stand alone mode?
the program must allow the user to specify the location of the database
