Package: pyro (3.7-2)

distributed object system for Python

Pyro (PYthon Remote Object) is an easy to use and powerful distributed object system for Python. In a distributed object system, clients send requests to distant servers, which owns the remote objects. Pyro simplifies a lot the creation of clients and servers, and has among its features:

 - dynamic and static proxies for all remote method invocations,
 - a naming service which keeps record of the location of objects,
 - mobile objects support: clients and servers can pass objects around,
 - exceptions that occur in the remote object is raised on the client too,
 - multithreaded server support to handle multiple requests simultaneously.

This package contains the core Pyro library and the command line tools.

Some graphical tools are available in the pyro-gui package. The documentation is available in the pyro-doc package. A lot of examples are available in the pyro-examples package.
