Subclass me to get copied each time you are returned from or passed to a remote method.
When I am returned from or passed to a remote method call, I will be
converted into data via a set of callbacks (see my methods for more
info). That data will then be serialized using Jelly, and sent to
the peer.
The peer will then look up the type to represent this with; see
RemoteCopy for details.
Methods

|
getStateToCopy
getStateToCopyFor
getTypeToCopy
getTypeToCopyFor
jellyFor
|
|
getStateToCopy
|
getStateToCopy ( self )
Gather state to send when I am serialized for a peer.
I will default to returning self.__dict__. Override this to
customize this behavior.
|
|
getStateToCopyFor
|
getStateToCopyFor ( self, perspective )
Gather state to send when I am serialized for a particular perspective.
I will default to calling getStateToCopy. Override this to
customize this behavior.
|
|
getTypeToCopy
|
getTypeToCopy ( self )
Determine what type tag to send for me.
By default, send the string representation of my class
(package.module.Class); normally this is adequate, but
you may override this to change it.
|
|
getTypeToCopyFor
|
getTypeToCopyFor ( self, perspective )
Determine what type tag to send for me.
By default, defer to self.getTypeToCopy() normally this is
adequate, but you may override this to change it.
|
|
jellyFor
|
jellyFor ( self, jellier )
Assemble type tag and state to copy for this broker.
This will call getTypeToCopyFor and getStateToCopy, and
return an appropriate s-expression to represent me.
