Package com.sun.jini.discovery.plaintext Description

Provides an implementation of the net.jini.discovery.plaintext discovery format, specified in the Jini(TM) Discovery and Join Specification. The Client class implements the client side of the net.jini.discovery.plaintext discovery format for the multicast request, multicast announcement, and unicast discovery protocols, while the Server class implements the server side of the discovery format for those protocols. Both classes are intended to be specified in a resource to configure the operation of the Discovery class, as described in the documentation for Discovery.getProtocol2(ClassLoader).

Supported Constraints

For each of the three discovery protocols, both Client and Server support the following constraints:

• any ConnectionAbsoluteTime
• any ConnectionRelativeTime
• a ConstraintAlternatives if at least one element is supported
• Integrity.NO
• Confidentiality.NO
• ClientAuthentication.NO
• ServerAuthentication.NO
• Delegation.NO
• any ClientMaxPrincipal
• any ClientMaxPrincipalType
• any ClientMinPrincipal
• any ClientMinPrincipalType
• any ServerMinPrincipal
• any DelegationAbsoluteTime
• any DelegationRelativeTime

(Note that ClientMaxPricipal, ClientMaxPrincipalType, ClientMinPrincipal, ClientMinPrincipalType, ServerMinPrincipal, DelegationAbsoluteTime, and DelegationRelativeTime constraints are trivially supported if ClientAuthentication.YES, ServerAuthentication.YES, and Delegation.YES are not supported.)

Since:
