- +In the previous Classpath releases, an instance of a UnicastRemoteObject +could be accessed from a server that: +

has created an instance of that object
+
has been running all the time

+
The the activation system allows to activate and execute the object +implementation on demand rather than running all time. 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. +
+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. +
+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). +
