The data flow model of Cross - X consists of seven
sequential steps as follows
Step 1:
 |
The
Domain Server will be activated |
|
The
RMI Registry will be started Programmatically |
Step 2:
|
The
Clients will register with the Server by starting the RMI Registry at the
startup |
Step 3:
|
The other clients will also
follow the Step 2 and will get registered with the server |
Step 4:
|
Using
the remote object during the look up, the clients will call function of the
remote object to get the list of registered clients |
Step 5:
|
A
Client say, 192.168.0.3 selects another client machine say, 192.168.0.5 and
looks up to the client’s RMI Registry to get the remote object (Similar to
Step 2) |
Step 6:
|
With
this remote object we can start calling the functions needed to get the files.
The file information is sent as XML data after access check for the requested
directory |
Step 7:
|
If
the client tries to open the file in remote machine, first, it will check for
mapping in the local machine and open the file accordingly |
