/**
 * The object importer enables applets to call a method on a remote
 * object running on the <code>Webserver</code>.
 *
 * <p>To access the remote
 * object, the applet first calls <code>lookupObject()</code> and
 * obtains a proxy object, which is a reference to that object.
 * The class name of the proxy object is identical to that of
 * the remote object.
 * The proxy object provides the same set of methods as the remote object.
 * If one of the methods is invoked on the proxy object,
 * the invocation is delegated to the remote object.
 * From the viewpoint of the applet, therefore, the two objects are
 * identical. The applet can access the object on the server
 * with the regular Java syntax without concern about the actual
 * location.
 *
 * <p>The methods remotely called by the applet must be <code>public</code>.
 * This is true even if the applet's class and the remote object's classs
 * belong to the same package.
 *
 * <p>If class X is a class of remote objects, a subclass of X must be
 * also a class of remote objects.  On the other hand, this restriction
 * is not applied to the superclass of X.  The class X does not have to
 * contain a constructor taking no arguments.
 *
 * <p>The parameters to a remote method is passed in the <i>call-by-value</i>
 * manner.  Thus all the parameter classes must implement
 * <code>java.io.Serializable</code>.  However, if the parameter is the
 * proxy object, the reference to the remote object instead of a copy of
 * the object is passed to the method.
 *
 * <p>Because of the limitations of the current implementation,
 * <ul>
 * <li>The parameter objects cannot contain the proxy
 * object as a field value.
 * <li>If class <code>C</code> is of the remote object, then
 * the applet cannot instantiate <code>C</code> locally or remotely.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>All the exceptions thrown by the remote object are converted
 * into <code>RemoteException</code>.  Since this exception is a subclass
 * of <code>RuntimeException</code>, the caller method does not need
 * to catch the exception.  However, good programs should catch
 * the <code>RuntimeException</code>.
