Class ObjId<T>

java.lang.Object

fr.inria.zvtm.cluster.ObjId<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class ObjId<T>
extends Object
implements Serializable

An object identifier. A master program can request new ObjectId instances through an ObjIdFactory. Slaves, however, should never create them except through deserialization. ObjId instances may be tested for equality and validity. If two ObjectId instances are equal, then the owning objects are considered identical (even though they are not in the Java sense, as they are mirrored on different machines).
