Let JAVA objects travel through the net!
Calling functions with JAVA objects as parameter over the network is nothing new. But it was never as easy, save and fast as with JOtunnel. JOtunnel uses pure HTTP. So, no firewall configuration, no extra security, no special port configuration. Where your browser goes, there are your JAVA objects going to as well.
Design
   
  The JOtunnel system works in an environment of a webserver with servlet engine, a JAVA client application or applet and a HTTP network as the Internet, Intranet or Extranet.
  An JOtunnel application needs only four classes.
  JORequest & JOResponse
   
  The client sends a JORequest to the server and receives a JOResponse object.

The JORequest object contains a request Name (String) and an array of serializable objects, the parameters.

The JOResponse contains a Serialized object as the result of a request.
  JOClient
   
  The JOClient is a client side proxy which takes care of sending and receiving of the JORequest and JOResponse objects.
  JOServer
   
  An subclass of the JOServer implements your server side funtions. A single function has to be implemented.
