public class RemoteEnumerator

extends UnicastRemoteObject

implements RemoteEnumeration

This class provides a wrapper for Enumeration objects to be accessed remotely via RMI. Its primary use is to provide access to the methods WordNet.getCachedDataEntries(java.lang.String) and WordNet.getCachedIndexEntries(java.lang.String) for RMI clients, as defined by the same-named methods in WordNetRemote (which are implemented by WordNetServer). RemoteEnumerator objects are fail-fast, just as normal Enumeration objects are.
