Interface LocatorPrx

All Superinterfaces:
ObjectPrx
All Known Subinterfaces:
LocatorPrx

public interface LocatorPrx extends ObjectPrx
The Ice locator interface. This interface is used by clients to lookup adapters and objects. It is also used by servers to get the locator registry proxy.

The Locator interface is intended to be used by Ice internals and by locator implementations. Regular user code should not attempt to use any functionality of this interface directly.
