protected Thread getServiceFinderThread()

Description copied from class: ServerBean

A thread is used, because searching for the way to talk to a broker can take a while, and the application should not block while this is happening. It allows multiple beans to find brokers at the same time.

Specified by:

getServiceFinderThread in class ServerBean

Returns:

a thread, not yet started.

protected void getRMIConnection()
                         throws GeneralException,
