public interface OpaqueReference

An opaque reference is an object that is bound into the name service to represent another object. When an object implementing this interface is retrived from a WLContext (via lookup or listBindings), the naming service returns the object returned by getReferent(). OpaqueReference is an alternative to javax.naming.Reference. Where Reference requires the caller to manage producing the referent, OpaqueReference allows the reference to encapsulate this process.

Excluded in public API Reference.
