Class Avatar

Known Subclasses:
NewCredPerspective

A default IPerspective implementor.

This class is intended to be subclassed, and a realm should return an instance of such a subclass when IPerspective is requested of it.

A peer requesting a perspective will receive only a RemoteReference to a pb.Avatar. When a method is called on that RemoteReference, it will translate to a method on the remote perspective named 'perspective_methodname'. (For more information on invoking methods on other objects, see flavors.ViewPoint.)
Method Summary
  perspectiveMessageReceived(self, broker, message, args, kw)
This method is called when a network message is received.

Method Details

perspectiveMessageReceived(self, broker, message, args, kw)

This method is called when a network message is received.

I will call:
 |  self.perspective_%(message)s(*broker.unserialize(args),
 |                               **broker.unserialize(kw))
to handle the method; subclasses of Avatar are expected to implement methods of this naming convention.
