Compiling this example yields an error in RogerB:
( 85 )% rmic -iiop InterfaceA
( 86 )% rmic -iiop RogerA
( 87 )% rmic -iiop RogerB
error: RogerB is not a valid remote implementation: has no remote interfaces.
1 error

Changed RogerA and RogerB's a1() declarations to explicit throw RemoteException.
No change in rmic -iiop results.

I am getting an error in rmic trying to generate RMI-IIOP artifacts for an
implementation class.

Here is source code that reproduces the problem. If I run RogerA through rmic,
no problem. However, it barfs on RogerB complaining that it has no remote
interfaces. Apparently, rmic does not recognize that RogerB inherits the
interfaces of RogerA.

public interface InterfaceA extends java.rmi.Remote {
    void a1() throws java.rmi.RemoteException;
}


public class RogerA implements InterfaceA {

    public void a1() { }
}


public class RogerB extends RogerA {

    public void a1() { }
}
