Peter,
I'm refactoring FtpServer (apologies for size of commits). This has basically meant making more blocks. As a consequence some interfaces becoming services have had to changed so they are not longer remote interfaces. Instead I have created a second interface that does extend Remote and and Adapter class (like dyn proxy) that makes a suitable RMI capable interface for the service. I'm raising this because it overlaps with the core changes, and think your advise at this stage might be useful.
Just had a look - looks good. Phoenix will eventually allow you to do this sort of thing dynamically (ie just specify remote interface and it will automagically create adaptor) but that is a long time off for now.
So the starting point is a Service interface that already extends Remote and specifies RemoteException on each method... OR a normal interface that can be remote adapted? dynamically.
I ask because I've been splitting Ranas services into pure interfaces and Remote versions for use over the wire. I unilaterally felt it to be unclean to have Remote specified at service level ... it was forcing other in-machine blocks to handle RemoteException (and you know how much I hate that).
Regards,
