.SH DESCRIPTION
56
.PP
57
The \f[V]rmiregistry\f[R] command creates and starts a remote object
58
registry on the specified port on the current host.
59
If the port is omitted, then the registry is started on port 1099.
60
The \f[V]rmiregistry\f[R] command produces no output and is typically
61
run in the background, for example:

67
A remote object registry is a bootstrap naming service that\[aq]s used
68
by RMI servers on the same host to bind remote objects to names.
69
Clients on local and remote hosts can then look up remote objects and
70
make remote method invocations.
71
.PP
72
The registry is typically used to locate the first remote object on
73
which an application needs to call methods.
74
That object then provides application-specific support for finding other
75
objects.
76
.PP
77
The methods of the \f[V]java.rmi.registry.LocateRegistry\f[R] class are
78
used to get a registry operating on the local host or local host and
79
port.
80
.PP
81
The URL-based methods of the \f[V]java.rmi.Naming\f[R] class operate on
82
a registry and can be used to:
83
.IP \[bu] 2
84
Bind the specified name to a remote object
85
.IP \[bu] 2
86
Return an array of the names bound in the registry
87
.IP \[bu] 2
88
Return a reference, a stub, for the remote object associated with the
89
specified name
90
.IP \[bu] 2
91
Rebind the specified name to a new remote object
92
.IP \[bu] 2
93
Destroy the binding for the specified name that\[aq]s associated with a
94
remote object
