Method and system for remotely browsing objects

摘要

Remote access to objects such as beans is provided by mapping objects onto an HTML page at the network station at which the objects are located. An HTML generator running on the same virtual machine is used dynamically to map the beans onto the HTML page. Remote access for browsing and modifying the object is then possible using a web browser supporting HTTP or HTML protocols without having to specially modify an object to permit access, for example by the provision of remote access code in the object. An application for remote bean access is in the context of a network agent for a network management system. <IMAGE>
