Interface RemoteNodeDefinition

All Superinterfaces:

Remote, RemoteItemDefinition

All Known Implementing Classes:

ServerNodeDefinition

public interface RemoteNodeDefinition
extends RemoteItemDefinition

Remote version of the JCR NodeDefinition interface. Used by the ServerNodeDefinition and ClientNodeDefinition adapters to provide transparent RMI access to remote node definitions.

The methods in this interface are documented only with a reference to a corresponding NodeDef method. The remote object will simply forward the method call to the underlying NodeDef instance. Return values and possible exceptions are copied over the network. Complex NodeType return values are returned as remote references to the RemoteNodeType interface. RMI errors are signaled with RemoteExceptions.

RemoteNodeType	getDefaultPrimaryType() Remote version of the NodeDef.getDefaultPrimaryType() method.
