## java.rmi.server
Interface Skeleton

Deprecated. no replacement. Skeletons are no longer required for remote method calls in the Java 2 platform v1.2 and greater.

public interface Skeleton

The `Skeleton` interface is used solely by the RMI implementation.

Every version 1.1 (and version 1.1 compatible skeletons generated in 1.2 using `rmic -vcompat`) skeleton class generated by the rmic stub compiler implements this interface. A skeleton for a remote object is a server-side entity that dispatches calls to the actual remote object implementation.

Since:
  JDK1.1

Method Summary
`void` | `dispatch(Remote obj, RemoteCall theCall, int opnum, long hash)` Deprecated. no replacement
`Operation[]` | `getOperations()` Deprecated. no replacement

Method Detail

### dispatch

    public void dispatch(Remote obj,
                         RemoteCall theCall,
                         int opnum,
