You are right. I wanted to use pyro before, because it is well tested
and it has nice features.
Unfortunately, it is not good for me. :-(
I already have my own classes. My objects are in object ownership trees,
and they are referencing to each other (weakly and strongly). These
classes have their own streaming methods, and they can be pickled
safely. This is something that pyro cannot handle. It cannot handle
these ownership object trees with weak references. Pyro can distribute
distinct objects only, and it uses an 'object naming scheme'. This is
not what I want. My objects do not have a name, and I do not want to
create 'technical names' just to force the Pyro style access. (Another
problem is that I do not want to rewrite my classes and inherit them
from the Pyro base object class.)
Thanks for the comment. I'm going to check the Pyro documentation again.
I might find something useful.
