/**
 * An <code>RMIClientSocketFactory</code> instance is used by the RMI runtime
 * in order to obtain client sockets for RMI calls.  A remote object can be
 * associated with an <code>RMIClientSocketFactory</code> when it is
 * created/exported via the constructors or <code>exportObject</code> methods
 * of <code>java.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject</code> and
 * <code>java.rmi.activation.Activatable</code> .
 *
 * <p>An <code>RMIClientSocketFactory</code> instance associated with a remote
 * object will be downloaded to clients when the remote object's reference is
 * transmitted in an RMI call.  This <code>RMIClientSocketFactory</code> will
 * be used to create connections to the remote object for remote method calls.
 *
 * <p>An <code>RMIClientSocketFactory</code> instance can also be associated
 * with a remote object registry so that clients can use custom socket
 * communication with a remote object registry.
 *
 * <p>An implementation of this interface should be serializable and
 * should implement {@link Object#equals} to return <code>true</code> when
 * passed an instance that represents the same (functionally equivalent)
 * client socket factory, and <code>false</code> otherwise (and it should also
 * implement {@link Object#hashCode} consistently with its
 * <code>Object.equals</code> implementation).
