 make the activeObjectcallback to the group's
 monitor. | 
| abstract void | ActivationGroup. activeObject(ActivationID id,
            Remote obj) | The group's activeObjectmethod is called when an
 object is exported (either byActivatableobject
 construction or an explicit call toActivatable.exportObject. | 
| static ActivationGroup | ActivationGroup. createGroup(ActivationGroupID id,
           ActivationGroupDesc desc,
           long incarnation) | Create and set the activation group for the current VM. |

            boolean restart,
            int port) | Registers an activation descriptor (with the specified location,
 data, and restart mode) for the specified object, and exports that
 object with the specified port. |

            String location,
            MarshalledObject<?> data,

            int port,
            RMIClientSocketFactory csf,
            RMIServerSocketFactory ssf) | Registers an activation descriptor (with the specified location,
 data, and restart mode) for the specified object, and exports that
 object with the specified port, and the specified client and server
 socket factories. | 
| ActivationDesc | ActivationSystem. getActivationDesc(ActivationID id) | Returns the activation descriptor, for the object with the activation
 identifier, id. | 
| ActivationGroupDesc | ActivationSystem. getActivationGroupDesc(ActivationGroupID id) | Returns the activation group descriptor, for the group
 with the activation group identifier, id. | 
| static ActivationSystem | ActivationGroup. getSystem() | Returns the activation system for the VM. | 
| static boolean | Activatable. inactive(ActivationID id) | Informs the system that the object with the corresponding activation
 idis currently inactive. | 
| boolean | ActivationGroup. inactiveObject(ActivationID id) | The group's inactiveObjectmethod is called
 indirectly via a call to theActivatable.inactivemethod. | 
| MarshalledObject | ActivationGroup_Stub. newInstance(ActivationID id,
           ActivationDesc desc) | Stub method for ActivationGroup.newInstance. | 
| MarshalledObject<? extends Remote> | ActivationInstantiator. newInstance(ActivationID id,
           ActivationDesc desc) | The activator calls an instantiator's newInstancemethod in order to recreate in that group an object with the
 activation identifier,id, and descriptor,desc. | 
| static Remote | Activatable. register(ActivationDesc desc) | Register an object descriptor for an activatable remote
 object so that is can be activated on demand. | 
| ActivationGroupID | ActivationSystem. registerGroup(ActivationGroupDesc desc) | Register the activation group. | 
| ActivationID | ActivationSystem. registerObject(ActivationDesc desc) | The registerObjectmethod is used to register an
 activation descriptor,desc, and obtain an
 activation identifier for a activatable remote object. | 
| ActivationDesc | ActivationSystem. setActivationDesc(ActivationID id,
                 ActivationDesc desc) | Set the activation descriptor, descfor the object with
 the activation identifier,id. | 
| ActivationGroupDesc | ActivationSystem. setActivationGroupDesc(ActivationGroupID id,
                      ActivationGroupDesc desc) | Set the activation group descriptor, descfor the object
 with the activation group identifier,id. | 
| static void | ActivationGroup. setSystem(ActivationSystem system) | Set the activation system for the VM. | 
| static void | Activatable. unregister(ActivationID id) | Revokes previous registration for the activation descriptor
 associated with id. | 
| void | ActivationSystem. unregisterGroup(ActivationGroupID id) | Remove the activation group. | 
| void | ActivationSystem. unregisterObject(ActivationID id) | Remove the activation id and associated descriptor previously
 registered with the ActivationSystem; the object
 can no longer be activated via the object's activation id. |
