I don't understand you here. Why can't you just do something like:
>>> class RemoteClass(object):
... def __init__(self, name):
... self.name = name
... def __repr__(self):
... return '%s(name=%s)' % (type(self).__name__, self.name)
...
>>> rc = RemoteClass('foo')
>>> rc
RemoteClass(name=foo)
>>> class ProxyClass(object):
... def __init__(self, name):
... self.remote = RemoteClass(name)
... def __repr__(self):
... return repr(self.remote)
...
>>> pc = ProxyClass('foo')
>>> pc
RemoteClass(name=foo)
Note that when I call methods on the remote class, I don't pass them an
instance of the proxy class -- I pass them an instance of the
appropriate, RemoteClass type. Of course my code is simplified because
I'm not actually doing something remote, but assuming things get, say,
pickled and unpickled appropriately, I'm not sure I understand why the
above won't work.
Could you give some more details?
