Hello Ranchers,
Could someone explain me PASS BY REFERENCE in RMI with an example. however, I read some articles, I am not able to get the bottom of it.
Also when RMI would use PASS BY VALUE & PASS BY reference. Can we make the option or its JVM way to go !! ?
any input is appreciated!!

AFAIK There is no pass by reference in RMI. The objects you pass or receive back are serialized copies of the originals. Everything is pass-by-value I guess, even tho for the objects its more pass-by-copy since p-b-v is more of a primatives thing.
