Getting started with Providers

[Peter Doyle <pe...@datalex.ie>]

Hi everyone,
I am trying to do write some sort of provider (I am using
TemplateProvider.java as a... template!)
However, I am at a loss as to how and where the locate and invoke methods
get called.  Are they called from the client using call.setMethodName() or
is there something else missing? (I am new to this and I have not found any
appropriate samples).
Could someone please send me a sample provider and client which uses it (I
guess the DeplomentDescriptor would be useful too)

any help would be much appreciated!

thanks in advance

Peter
