Known Problems
 
 
  • In Message.java
    • The field datatype is used to specify the type of the data in the message body, for optimization purpose, in order to reduce the amount of copying in message handling. The datatype OBJECT is used when the message body contains only one object of any class.  The object is serialized when the message is written to an output stream and it is deserialized when the message is read from an input stream. The reader of the message should know the class of the object in order to be able to deserialize it. Otherwise a ClassNotFoundException exception will be thrown.
  • In the server package
    • Code has been written for the communication with a proxy server, for the replicated version of the Corona server (Coordinator.java, etc), and for performance monitoring and QoS control (Scheduler.java, etc). Currently this code may be either unused or not fully functional, but it is still included in the distribution.
