An RMIFailureHandler can be registered via the
RMISocketFactory.setFailureHandler call. The
failure method of the handler is invoked when the RMI
runtime is unable to create a ServerSocket to listen
for incoming calls. The failure method returns a boolean
indicating whether the runtime should attempt to re-create the
ServerSocket.
The failure callback is invoked when the RMI
runtime is unable to create a ServerSocket via the
RMISocketFactory. An RMIFailureHandler
is registered via a call to
RMISocketFacotry.setFailureHandler. If no failure
handler is installed, the default behavior is to attempt to
re-create the ServerSocket.
Parameters:
ex - the exception that occurred during ServerSocket
creation
Returns:
if true, the RMI runtime attempts to retry
ServerSocket creation
