Product Description
Review
"This book collects an astonishing range of Java RMI material, suitable for any Java programmer regardless of experience with RMI. The RMI novice will be able to run RMI programs without excessive hair-pulling; the accomplished RMI programmer will find enough techniques and explanations to improve the performance, capability, or aesthetic quality of his or her code; and the RMI expert will be able to perform great RMI-based hacks without the JDK source code. If you’re looking at this book because I directed you to it on the RMI-USERS mailing list, then, yes, you’ve found the right one!"
- from the foreword by Adrian Colley, RMI team, Sun Microsystems, Ireland
"Esmond is one of the long-time RMI 'gurus', accumulating a vast and deep arsenal of practical knowledge in RMI uses, internals, tricks and techniques. I am amazed he has packed so much in just under 300 pages. An effective RMI or Jini developer should absolutely have this reference in his collection."
-Brian Maso; consultant, DevelopMentor instructor, and Java Pro at DevX.com"

I started learning RMI with this book, and its an in depth coverage of this important topic! It does not bore you with silly toy examples, but it goes also straigth to the point! Thanx for this great book! Keep your way of explaining in future editions!

Most people learn RMI the hard way, via the JDK documentation and FAQ's. This book is an excellent guide to the subject and a worthwhile purchase for anyone involved in RMI or EJB development.
Huge effort has obviously been spent on making the text as clear and readible as possible. My only criticism is that I would have liked more in-depth discussion of how implementations actually work.

This is the only book on RMI that I have come across that describes the topic in depth as opposed to just providing a set of APIs. It is very complete, readable and understandable. And it also covers issues such as code mobility across different remote hosts, implementation across firewalls and exception handling.
I would suggest this is a book for designers, technical architects or those planning to implement RMI Services in systems and who need to know about the issues involved and the implications for overall design.
It is also a good read for programmers prior to writing a single line of code.
It is well written, well organised and follows a logical progression building up understanding as the reader progresses. I really do recommend this book.
