Class ServerObject

java.lang.Object
  com.esri.arcgis.server.ServerObject

All Implemented Interfaces:

com.esri.arcgis.interop.RemoteObjRef, IServerObject, IServerObjectExtensionManager, ILogSupport, IObjectActivate, IObjectConstruct, Serializable

public class ServerObject
extends Object
implements com.esri.arcgis.interop.RemoteObjRef, IServerObject, IServerObjectExtensionManager, IObjectConstruct, IObjectActivate, ILogSupport

The ServerObject object which runs within a server context in the GIS server.

Remarks

A ServerObject is a coarse-grained ArcObject, that is a high-level object that simplifies the programming model for doing certain operations and hides the fine-grained ArcObjects that do the work. Server objects support coarse-grained interfaces that support methods that do large untis of work, such as �draw a map�, or �geocode a set of addresses�. ServerObjects also have SOAP interfaces which makes it possible to expose server objects as web services that can be consumed by clients across the internet.

ArcGIS Server has to ServerObject: MapServer and GeocodeServer.

Constructor Detail

ServerObject

public ServerObject(Object obj)
             throws IOException

Construct a ServerObject using a reference to such an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server. This is semantically equivalent to casting obj to ServerObject.
Casting to this class from the return value of a method will not work, as this class represents an abstract class in ArcObjects.
*
ServerObject o = (ServerObject)obj; // will not work

ServerObject o = new ServerObject(obj); // Use this constructor instead
* @param obj an object returned from ArcGIS Engine or Server

Throws:

IOException - if there are interop problems ServerObject theServerObject = (ServerObject) obj;

Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Compare this object with another

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

the hashcode for this object

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

getConfigurationName

public String getConfigurationName()

Name of the server object configuration that defines the server object.
