PortableRemoteObject.narrow is defined as:
public static Object narrow(Object narrowFrom,
Class narrowTo)
throws ClassCastException
which as you can see returns type Object which then (as Java is such a
strongly typed language) MUST be cast back to the class you have narrowed
down to...
Hope this helps, and I havent misunderstood your question...
Good luck,
Tim.
