Abstract
A message gate is the message endpoint for a client or service in a distributed computing environment. A message gate may provide a secure message endpoint that sends and receives type-safe messages. A gate may have a gate name that is a unique ID that refers only to the gate. In one embodiment, a gate is assigned a gate name when the gate is created and the gate name refers to only that gate for the life of the gate. A gate may be addressed using its gate name. The name may allow clients and services to migrate about the network and still work together. In a preferred embodiment, the gate address is independent of the physical message transport address and/or socket layer. Thus, a gate name may provide a virtual message endpoint address that may be bound and un-bound to a message transport address.
