Description

I want to invoke a remote method, who's name is without any prefix.
In the "newInstance" methods:
1. The first 2 signatures add the class name as a prefix:
public interface X

{ public void foo(); }

foo() invokes--> X.foo()
2. The 3rd signature adds the string passed in pRemoteName as a prefix:
invoking newInstance with pRemoteName="goo" invokes--> "goo.foo()"
passing pRemoteName="" invokes --> ".foo()"

suggested patch:

In the class
"ClientFactory.java"
In method
"public Object newInstance(ClassLoader pClassLoader, final Class pClass,
final String pRemoteName)"

add a check if the pRemoteName is empty, if this is the case then no need to
concatenate "." before the method name.

today - String methodName = pRemoteName + "." + pMethod.getName();

a fix - String methodName = pMethod.getName();
if(pRemoteName.length()>0)

{ methodName = pRemoteName + "." + methodName; }
