DualRpc is an open source lightweight Java framework for making RPC calls between server and client. DualRpc is a practical solution for building rich, thin clients that interact with business logic on the server.
The framework is bidirectional - a client can call server side methods and the server can call client side methods. POJOs are used for RPC method parameters and return values. RPC calls and messages can also be broadcast to all connected clients.
Because a single, continuous TCP/IP connection is established between client and server, session state is preserved between RPC calls. SSL, SSH and HTTP/SOCKS proxy tunneling is built-in, which makes it easy to secure and deploy applications behind firewalls.
DualRpc can be used in combination with Swing, SWT and other GUI frameworks.
