Hi All,
The javadoc for DGC.dirty() states the following:
The client must also make a dirty call to renew leases on remote references before such leases expire. When the client no longer has any references to a specific remote object, it must schedule a clean call for the object ID associated with the reference.
How does one insure that the lease does not expire on a remote reference before the client is ready to relinquish it? How does one acquire a DGC reference on a remote VM in order to check the lease information? The API docs on java.rmi.dgc are not very helpful on these subjects and despite many futile searches, I am no closer to understanding them.
Thanks in advance for your help
