Spring Remoting: Remote Method Invocation (RMI)--转

原文地址:http://www.studytrails.com/frameworks/spring/spring-remoting-rmi.jsp

Concept Overview

Spring provides four ways to develop remote services. Remote services are services hosted on remote servers and accessed by clients over the network. For example, lets say you are developing a desktop application that needs to connect to a central server. The desktop application can be on various machines. you can use spring remoting to connect the clients on the desktop to the server. Web services developed using JAX-WS can also be developed and integrated using Spring. Here are the four remoting ways supported by spring-

  1. RMI - Remote Method Invocation - Use RMI to invoke a remote method. The java objects are serialized
  2. Hessian - Transfer binary data between the client and the server.
  3. Burlap - Transfer XML data between the client and the server. It is the XML alternative to Hessian
  4. JAX-WS - Java XML API for Web Services.

In this first tutorial we look at Spring remoting using RMI. This is how it works - Spring creates a proxy that represents the actual remote bean. The proxy is created using RmiProxyFactoryBean. The proxy can be used as a normal Spring bean and the client code does not need to know that it is actually calling a remote method. Lets look at the important classes :org.springframework.aop.framework.ProxyFactory.RmiProxyFactoryBean - This class will be used by the client to create a proxy to connect to the remote service. This is a spring FactoryBean for creating RMI proxies. The proxied service is use a spring bean using the interface specified in the ServiceInterface property. The Remote service URL can be specified by the serviceUrl property. org.springframework.remoting.rmi.RmiServiceExporter - This class will be used by the server to create a remote service. The service can be accessed by plain RMI or spring proxy class created using RmiProxyFactoryBean as explain above. This class also supports exposing non-RMI services via RMI Invoker. Any Serializable java object can be transported between the client and the server.

Sample Program Overview

The sample program below develops a simple greeting service. The example demonstrates Spring remoting using RMISpring Remoting: Remote Method Invocation (RMI)--转

Interaction Flow

Spring Remoting: Remote Method Invocation (RMI)--转

  • Client sends a message call
  • This message call is handled by an RMI Proxy created by RmiProxyFactoryBean
  • The RMI Proxy converts the call into a remote call over JRMP (Java Remote Method Protocol)
  • The RMI Service Adapter created by RmiServiceExporter intercepts the remote call over JRMP
  • It forwards the method call to Service

RMI Server Source Code

Create the GreetingService interface as shown below. 
Create a method named getGreeting() that takes a name as a parameter and returns the greeting message (see line 5 below).

GreetingService.java

package com.studytrails.tutorials.springremotingrmiserver;
 
public interface GreetingService {
 
String getGreeting(String name);
}

Create a class GreetingServiceImpl as shown below. 
It implements the GreetingService interface (described earlier) 
Implement the getGreeting() method by sending a greeting message (see lines 6-8 below).

public class GreetingServiceImpl implements GreetingService{
 
@Override
public String getGreeting(String name) {
return "Hello " + name + "!";
}
 
}

Create the StartRmiServer class as shown below. 
It loads spring-config.xml (described later) (see line 10 below) . 
Note that loading of spring-config.xml automatically starts the RMI server.

public class StartRmiServer {
 
public static void main(String[] args) {
ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("spring-config-server.xml");
System.out.println("Waiting for Request from Client ...");
 
}
}

Create the spring-config-server.xml file (see below).

Declare the 'greetingService' (see lines 13-14 below).

Export the 'greetingService' using Spring's RmiServiceExporter class (see lines 16-21 below). 
Note the following properties of RmiServiceExporter class:

  • serviceName : refers the name of the server as used by the RMI Client (described later) (see line 17 below)
  • service: the service class bean which shall handle the RMI call (see line 18 below)
  • serviceInterface: The interface to be used by Spring to create proxies for RMI (see line 19 below)
  • registryPort: the default port on which the RMI service is exposed

RMI Client Source Code

Create the GreetingService interface as shown below. 
Copy the GreetingService interface created for RMI Server (described above) and paste it in RMI Client source code while retaining the java package structure.

Note: For reference, the source code is shown below.

package com.studytrails.tutorials.springremotingrmiserver;
 
public interface GreetingService {
 
String getGreeting(String name);
}

Create a class TestSpringRemotingRmi shown below to test Spring RMI Remoting. 
Load spring configuration file (see line 11 below) 
Get a reference to GreetingService using the bean name 'greetingService' (see line 12 below) 
Call the GreetingService.getGreting() method by passing the name 'Alpha' (see line 13 below) 
Print the greeting message (see line 14 below).

GreetingService greetingService = (GreetingService)context.getBean("greetingService");
String greetingMessage = greetingService.getGreeting("Alpha");
System.out.println("The greeting message is : " + greetingMessage);

Note the following properties of RmiProxyFactoryBean class:

  • serviceUrl : refers the URL of the remote service (see line 14 below). 
    Note URL part 'greetingService' corresponds to 'serviceName' property of RmiServiceExporter bean defined in spring-config-server.xml (defined earlier)
