Distributed Programming Overview

• When a distributed framework is used, a client makes a call to what appears to be the interface of a business object.

• Here a layer between clients and business objects is added • There will be a stub or proxy at the client that mimics the interface of that business object.

• There will be a tie or skeleton at the server to receive the request from the client stub In a distributed framework, the client calls a business method on a stub as if it were the real object. ------The stub then communicates this request to a tie. ------The tie calls the method on the real business object. ------A result is returned to the stub and the client.
