/**
* Provides support for RMI Object Activation. A remote
* object's reference can be made ``persistent'' and later activated into a
* ``live'' object using the RMI activation mechanism.
*
* <p>Implementations are not required to support the activation
* mechanism. If activation is not supported by this implementation,
* several specific activation API methods are all required to throw
* {@code UnsupportedOperationException}. If activation is supported by this
* implementation, these methods must never throw {@code
* UnsupportedOperationException}. These methods are denoted by the
* presence of an entry for {@code UnsupportedOperationException} in the
* <strong>Throws</strong> section of each method's specification.
*
* @since 1.2
