  30 Provides classes and interfaces for supporting the server
  31 side of RMI.  A group of classes are used by the stubs and skeletons
  32 generated by the rmic stub compiler.  Another group of classes
  33 implements the RMI Transport protocol and HTTP tunneling.
  34 
  35 <p><strong>Deprecated: HTTP Tunneling.</strong> <em>The HTTP tunneling
  36 mechanism has been deprecated. See {@link java.rmi.server.RMISocketFactory} for
  37 further information.</em>
  38 
  39 <p><strong>Deprecated: Skeletons and Static Stubs.</strong>
  40 
  41 <em>Skeletons and statically generated stubs are deprecated.  This
  42 includes the APIs in this package that require the use of skeletons
  43 or static stubs, the runtime support for them, and the use of the
  44 {@code rmic} stub compiler to generate them.  Support for skeletons
  45 and static stubs may be removed in a future release of the
  46 platform. Skeletons are unnecessary, as server-side method dispatching
  47 is handled directly by the RMI runtime. Statically generated stubs are
  48 unnecessary, as stubs are generated dynamically using {@link
  49 java.lang.reflect.Proxy Proxy} objects. See {@link
  50 java.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject UnicastRemoteObject} for
  51 information about dynamic stub generation. Generation of skeletons and
  52 static stubs was typically performed as part of an application's build
  53 process by calling the {@code rmic} tool. This is unnecessary, and
  54 calls to {@code rmic} can simply be omitted.</em>
