Method Detail

readMethod

public Method readMethod(Class c)
                  throws UnmarshalException

Reads a method from an underlying stream.

Parameters:

c - a class that declares the method.

Returns:

the method read.

Throws:

UnmarshalException - if something goes wrong.

readParameters

public Object[] readParameters()
                        throws UnmarshalException

Reads the arguments in a remote method invocation from an underlying stream.

Returns:

the objects representing the arguments.

Throws:

UnmarshalException - if something goes wrong.

readResult

public Object readResult()
                  throws UnmarshalException

Reads the result of a remote method invocation from an underlying stream.

Returns:

the object representing the result.

Throws:

UnmarshalException - if something goes wrong.

readException

public Exception readException()
                        throws UnmarshalException

Reads an exception thrown by a remote method invocation from an underlying stream.

Returns:

the thrown exception.

Throws:

UnmarshalException - if something goes wrong.
