Deputy - pack and send remote messages

#include <InterViews/deputy.h>

A deputy object performs operations on remote objects. A caller performs a local call on the deputy, which packs the parameters into a message. Deputies place the message into a buffer managed by a ChiefDeputy , which then take care of sending the message to the remote space.

Deputy()
Deputy(ChiefDeputy*)

Construct a deputy, optionally specifying the chief deputy that will manage the message buffer. The chief deputy is accessible through a protected member chief.

void Sync()

Force all messages to be sent to the remote object space. Without doing a Sync, messages are buffered locally to reduce message-passing overhead.

ObjectTag Tag()

Return a tag to use in messages to identify the remote object. Because the client defines the tag, a deputy uses its address (this pointer) as its tag.

Connection* GetServer()

Return the connection associated with the remote object.
