Hi Jason

I am not sure about it, but I start my registry within my server class like this:

java.rmi.registry.Registry registry = LocateRegistry.createRegistry(rmiPort);
registry.rebind("YourService", new YourServiceImpl());

It is not explicitely written in the instructions, but when you only are allowed to run your application with the arguments "server" or "client" (or without argument) then how would you start your registry in your submission?

have a nice day,
Mike

Hi Pete

1)
I think you misunderstood something. The "Start of file" section and the "Schema description section" is the header of the file and will not be repeated foreach record. After the header will be only the "naked" records without size-bytes.

2)
That means, that every record has a pre-record indicator if this record is deleted or is valid. Keep in mind, that these 2 bytes are also counted to the record length.

3)
I understood the magic cookie in that way, that it is a fixed value which i can check while reading the header. If the cookie is not what I expect, then the database is not corresponding to my databasemodel and therefore will throw an exception while start reading the database.

Hi xi brian

Because this field can be empty, it is not applicable as a primary key.

If your specification is nearly similar to mine, then it is only possible to use the position of the record in the database file as the primary key because no other field, or combination of fields would allow to be used as the pk.
