Implemented Interfaces:
IDLEntity, Serializable

public final class ForwardRequest
extends UserException
implements IDLEntity, Serializable

This exception is raised by ServantManager to indicate that the invocation target has moved to another known location. In this case, the client will receive a redirection (LOCATION_FORWARD) message and should resend the request to the new target. The exception contains the object reference, indicating the new location.

The exception can be thrown both by servant locators and servant activators. If the exception is raised anywhere else than in the ServantManager methods, it is handled as an ordinary user excepton.
