| 51 | .SH NAME |
| 52 | rmiregistry \- Starts a remote object registry on the specified port on the current host\&. |
| 53 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
| 54 | .sp |
| 55 | .nf |
| 56 | |
| 57 | \fBrmiregistry\fR [ \fIport\fR ] |
| 58 | .fi |
| 59 | .sp |
| 60 | .TP |
| 61 | \fIport\fR |
| 62 | The number of a \f3port\fR on the current host at which to start the remote object registry\&. |
| 63 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 64 | The \f3rmiregistry\fR command creates and starts a remote object registry on the specified port on the current host\&. If the port is omitted, then the registry is started on port 1099\&. The \f3rmiregistry\fR command produces no output and is typically run in the background, for example: |
| 65 | .sp |
| 66 | .nf |
| 67 | \f3rmiregistry &\fP |
| 68 | .fi |
| 69 | .nf |
| 70 | \f3\fP |
| 71 | .fi |
| 72 | .sp |
| 73 | A remote object registry is a bootstrap naming service that is used by RMI servers on the same host to bind remote objects to names\&. Clients on local and remote hosts can then look up remote objects and make remote method invocations\&. |
| 74 | .PP |
| 75 | The registry is typically used to locate the first remote object on which an application needs to call methods\&. That object then provides application-specific support for finding other objects\&. |
| 76 | .PP |
| 77 | The methods of the \f3java\&.rmi\&.registry\&.LocateRegistry\fR class are used to get a registry operating on the local host or local host and port\&. |
| 78 | .PP |
| 79 | The URL-based methods of the \f3java\&.rmi\&.Naming\fR class operate on a registry and can be used to look up a remote object on any host and on the local host\&. Bind a simple name (string) to a remote object, rebind a new name to a remote object (overriding the old binding), unbind a remote object, and list the URL bound in the registry\&. |
| 80 | .SH OPTIONS |

| 84 | Used with any Java option to pass the option following the \f3-J\fR (no spaces between the \f3-J\fR and the option) to the Java interpreter\&. |
