This module represents flavors of remotely accessible objects.
Currently this is only objects accessible through Perspective Broker, but will
hopefully encompass all forms of remote access which can emulate subsets of PB
(such as XMLRPC or SOAP).
Future Plans: Optimization. Exploitation of new-style object model.
Optimizations to this module should not affect external-use semantics at all,
but may have a small impact on users who subclass and override methods.

Flavors of transferable objects are listed below.
What it means to be \"Serializable\" is that an object can be
passed to or returned from a remote method. Certain basic types
(dictionaries, lists, tuples, numbers, strings) are serializable by
default; however, classes need to choose a specific serialization
style: L{Referenceable}, L{Viewable}, L{Copyable} or L{Cacheable}.
You may also pass C{[lists, dictionaries, tuples]} of L{Serializable}
instances to or return them from remote methods, as many levels deep

I act as an indirect reference to an object accessed through a
L{pb.Perspective}.
Simply put, I combine an object with a perspective so that when a
peer calls methods on the object I refer to, the method will be
invoked with that perspective as a first argument, so that it can
know who is calling it.
While L{Viewable} objects will be converted to ViewPoints by default
when they are returned from or sent as arguments to a remote
method, any object may be manually proxied as well. (XXX: Now that
this class is no longer named C{Proxy}, this is the only occourance
of the term 'proxied' in this docstring, and may be unclear.)
This can be useful when dealing with L{pb.Perspective}s, L{Copyable}s,
and L{Cacheable}s. It is legal to implement a method as such on
a perspective::
| def perspective_getViewPointForOther(self, name):
| defr = self.service.getPerspectiveRequest(name)
| defr.addCallbacks(lambda x, self=self: ViewPoint(self, x), log.msg)
| return defr
This will allow you to have references to Perspective objects in two
different ways. One is through the initial 'attach' call -- each
peer will have a L{pb.RemoteReference} to their perspective directly. The
other is through this method; each peer can get a L{pb.RemoteReference} to
all other perspectives in the service; but that L{pb.RemoteReference} will
be to a L{ViewPoint}, not directly to the object.
The practical offshoot of this is that you can implement 2 varieties
of remotely callable methods on this Perspective; view_xxx and
C{perspective_xxx}. C{view_xxx} methods will follow the rules for
ViewPoint methods (see ViewPoint.L{remoteMessageReceived}), and
C{perspective_xxx} methods will follow the rules for Perspective
methods.
