ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for client programs adapted for use in an object oriented, distributed computing system, to have the ability to communicate and use references to objects in a way which improves the benefits of software caching are disclosed. A mechanism is described whereby a network object handle (an augmented object handle) can be used to reference both a server and a local cache manager. When the augmented object handle is transmitted it is automatically updated to use a local cache manager in its target environment (i.e. on the same machine on which the receiving client program resides) if possible.
