The ConsumerAdmin interface defines the first step for connecting consumers to the event channel. It acts as a factory for creating proxy suppliers. Both consumer administration and supplier administration are defined as separate objects so that the creator of the channel can control the addition of suppliers and consumers.
Any object that possesses an object reference that supports the EventChannelFactory interface can perform the following operations:
obtain_push_supplier(Object) -> Return
Object = #objref
Return = #objref
This operation returns a ProxyPushSupplier object reference.
obtain_pull_supplier(Object) -> Return
Object = #objref
Return = #objref
This operation returns a ProxyPullSupplier object reference.
