I've been out of Java for a while and am bemused by the results I get
back when searching the groups for RMI answers. Most seem to be 4-5
years old or linked with weblogic or websphere. What are people using
these days? RMI?
I have an RMI server and 20 - 50 clients. The server makes call-backs
on the clients - which will be running 7 - 12 hours a day. However, I
am worried about timeouts and network failures and how the server will
be able to reconnect to any "lost" clients. ( Obviously, the server
won't be able to lookup the clients. ) I'm thinking of using RMI in
conjunction with sockets to ensure a robust/recoverable solution. Does
this make sense? Or, are people using newer techniques that are also
simple to configure. EJB seems to heavy weight for me.
Many thanks in advance.
