Tie (information technology)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A tie is a concept to bind a Class skeleton to an implementing class. With this approach the class which should be invoked by a remote call, can be derived from a non-remoting class. Usually a tie class is used in middleware systems, to perform delegation from the skeleton to an implementing class.

[edit] Example

Usually:

    Stub -remote-> Skeleton (perform logic)

Tie Approach:

    Stub -remote-> Tie Skeleton -delegate-> Class (perform logic)
