/** <P> This interface describes the methods which are used in a
    remote debugging scenario. It is only necessary because RMI
    requires that all such methods throw RemoteException, which is a
    checked (i.e., not a Runtime) exception. Since we already have a
    suitable runtime exception (DebuggerException) present in the
    signatures for all of the debugger-related methods, we would like
    to repurpose this to wrap RemoteExceptions. This is done by
    wrapping the actual remote debugger object
    </P>

    <P> NOTE that this interface currently assumes that the debugger
    on the remote machine has already been attached to the target
    process or has opened the desired core file. This implies that the
    machine hosting the user interface can not effect
    attaching/detaching. Currently this restriction has been enforced
    to make the user interface less confusing, but there will also be
    security concerns with allowing clients to attach to arbitrary
    remote processes. </P>
