Alex If you're doing this kind of work you should be able to read a protocol specification. See the RMI Specification #10.2.2. A reply message is a ProtocolAck 0x42 Returns; Returns is ultimately a ReturnData; ReturnData is 0x51 ReturnValue; and ReturnValue is specified in #10.3 as 0x01 UniqueIdentifier Value(opt) or 0x02 UniqueIdentifier Exception. Value and Exception are transferred via Serialization so from there you go to the Serialization Specification to find the format of a serialized object. If the method is void, the optional Value is absent of course.
