  Interface java.rmi.Remote
</h1>
<dl>
  <dt> public interface <b>Remote</b>
</dl>
The <code>Remote</code> interface serves to identify interfaces whose
 methods may be invoked from a non-local virtual machine.  Any object that
 is a remote object must directly or indirectly implement this interface.
 Only those methods specified in a "remote interface", an interface that
 extends <code>java.rmi.Remote</code>, are available remotely.
 <p>Implementation classes can implement any number of remote
 interfaces and can extend other remote implementation classes.  RMI
 provides a convenience class,
 <code>java.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject</code>, that remote
 object implementations can extend to facilitate remote object
 creation.
 <p>For complete details on RMI, see the <a
href=http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/guide/rmi/spec/rmiTOC.doc.html>RMI Specification</a> which describes the RMI API and system</a>.
