How to remotely shutdown a Java RMI Server

Question

I have a very simple Java RMI Server that looks like the following:

    import java.rmi.*;
    import java.rmi.server.*;

    public class CalculatorImpl extends         


        

Answer 1

In case anyone is having a similar problem, I figured out the answer myself. Here is my exit() method:

public void exit() throws RemoteException
{
    try{
        // Unregister ourself
        Naming.unbind(mServerName);

        // Unexport; this will also remove us from the RMI runtime
        UnicastRemoteObject.unexportObject(this, true);

        System.out.println("CalculatorServer exiting.");
    }
    catch(Exception e){}
}
