Hello
i would like to understand what is exactly a remote reference and what does it contains. Is it an instance of the stub ? is this stub created on the server and then serialized to be pased to the client ? Is it information about remote object and about the stub to instantiate in the client memory ?
thank you very much
Olivier

A remote reference is a reference to the stub object, which knows how to pass the method invocations to the target object on the server-side. In practise, this information might include an IP address, port number, and some identifiers needed by the application server's plumbing to route the invocation to the correct object.

Is not that the stub and remote reference are one and same entity? .
A remote reference(stub)at client side is reference to remote object that is ejb object.Both stubs and skeletons are created at server side.When we call create() on home object , reference to ejb object which we call stub is returned to client code.
