Interface PyProxy

public interface PyProxy

Common methods for all generated proxy classes. Proxy classes are created whenever a python class inherits from a java class. Instances of such a python class consists of two objects:

• An instance of the proxy class. The _getPyInstance() will return a reference to the PyInstance.
• An instance of PyInstance. The PyInstance.javaProxy contains a reference to the proxy class instance.

All proxy classes implement this interface.

Method Summary

void	__initProxy__(Object[] args) Initialize the proxy instance.
PyObject	_getPyInstance() Return the associated PyObject.
PySystemState	_getPySystemState() Return the associated system state.
void	_setPyInstance(PyObject proxy) Associate a PyObject with this proxy instance.
void	_setPySystemState(PySystemState ss) Associate an system state with this proxy instance.

Method Detail

_setPyInstance

void _setPyInstance(PyObject proxy)

Associate a PyObject with this proxy instance. This is done during construction and initialization of the proxy instance.

_getPyInstance

PyObject _getPyInstance()

Return the associated PyObject.

_setPySystemState

void _setPySystemState(PySystemState ss)

Associate an system state with this proxy instance. This is done during construction and initialization of the proxy instance.

_getPySystemState

PySystemState _getPySystemState()

Return the associated system state.

__initProxy__

void __initProxy__(Object[] args)

Initialize the proxy instance. If the proxy is not initialized, this will call the python constructor with args.

In some situations is it necessary to call the __initProxy__ method from the java superclass ctor before the ctor makes call to methods that is overridden in python.

In most situation the __initProxy__ is called automatically by the jython runtime.
