Method Detail

get_codebase

public String get_codebase(Object self)
Returns the codebase for the provided object reference. A codebase is a location information (for instance, URL), specifying, where the missing parts of the object code can be downloaded. This is important for the value type objects that handle they method calls locally and hence must have the local copy of the implementing code. This method must be overridden to get functionality, the default method always returns an empty string.

Returns: normally, an agreed location information, specifying, where the supporting code (like java classes) can be found.
