| 23 | * This service can be used to make arbitrary method calls on remote objects in ONOS. The objects on which the methods |
| 24 | * are called are referred to as <em>services</em> and are made available to the proxy service by |
| 25 | * {@link #registerProxyService(Class, Object, Serializer) registering} a service instance. Services must implement |
| 26 | * an <em>interface</em> which can be used to construct a Java proxy. Proxy interfaces may define either synchronous |
| 27 | * or asynchronous methods. Synchronous proxy methods will be blocked, and asynchronous proxy methods (which must |
| 28 | * return {@link java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture}) will be proxied using asynchronous intra-cluster |
| 29 | * communication. To make a remote call on a proxy service, get an instance of the {@link ProxyFactory} for the service |
| 30 | * type using {@link #getProxyFactory(Class, Serializer)}. The proxy factory is responsible for constructing proxy |
| 31 | * instances for each node in the cluster. Once a proxy instance is constructed, calls on the proxy instance will be |
| 32 | * transparently serialized and sent to the associated peer and be executed on the proxy service registered by that |
| 33 | * peer. |
