Method Detail

getServiceUUID

UUID getServiceUUID()
                    throws IOException

Returns:

The unique data service identifier.

Throws:

IOException - since you can use this method with RMI.

getServiceIface

Class getServiceIface()
                      throws IOException

Return the most interesting interface for the service.

Throws:

IOException - since you can use this method with RMI.

getHostname

String getHostname()
