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