public abstract class RemoteValue
extends Object
implements AgentConstants
The RemoteValue class allows access to a copy of a value in the remote Java interpreter. This value may be a primitive type, such as a boolean or float, or an object, class, array, etc. Remote values are not created by the local debugger, but are returned by the remote debugging agent when queried for the values of instance or static variables of known objects, or from local (stack) variables.
