obtained gcc-4.6.4.tar.bz2 from upstream website;upstream
verified gcc-4.6.4.tar.bz2.sig;
imported gcc-4.6.4 source tree from verified upstream tarball.
downloading a git-generated archive based on the 'upstream' tag
should provide you with a source tree that is binary identical
to the one extracted from the above tarball.
if you have obtained the source via the command 'git clone',
however, do note that line-endings of files in your working
directory might differ from line-endings of the respective
files in the upstream repository.

If the activation +system is persistent, the server can be terminated and then restarted. +The clients, still holding remote references to the server side +activatable objects, will activate those objects again. The server side +objects will be reinstantiated (activated) during the first call of any +remote method of such object. +</p><p> +The RMI client code for activatable objects is no different than the code for +accessing non-activatable remote objects. Activation is a server-side feature. +</p><p> +In order for an object to be activated, the "activatable" object class +(independently if it extends the {@link Activatable} class or not) defines a +special public constructor that takes two arguments, its activation identifier +({@link ActivationID}) and its activation data ({@link java.rmi.MarshalledObject}), +supplied in the activation descriptor used during registration. When an +activation group activates a remote object, it constructs the object via +this special constructor. The remote object implementation may use the +activation data to initialize itself in a needed manner. The remote object may +also retain its activation identifier, so that it can inform the activation +group when it becomes inactive (via a call to the Activatable.inactive method). +</p> +@author Audrius Meskauskas (audriusa@bioinformatics.org) (from empty) +</body> +</html> |
