A small software routine placed into a program that provides a common function. Stubs are used for different reasons. For example, a stub might be installed in a client computer, and a counterpart installed on a server, where both are required to resolve some protocol. For example in a remote procedure call (RPC) Stubs are compiled and linked with the client application, instead of containing the actual code that implements the remote procedure. The stub contains just enough code to allow it to be compiled and linked with the rest of a program. Stubs are often used as placeholders for a routine.
