The ProxyPullConsumer interface defines the second step for connecting pull suppliers to the event channel. A proxy consumer is similar to a normal consumer, but includes an additional method for connecting a supplier to the proxy consumer.
There are a number of exceptions that can be returned from functions in this interface.
-record('AlreadyConnected', {}).
-record('BAD_PARAM', {'OE_ID', minor, completion_status}).
The first exception is defined in the file event_service.hrl and the second one in the file corba.hrl.
Any object that possesses an object reference that supports the ProxyPullConsumer interface can perform the following operations:
connect_pull_supplier(Object, PullSupplier) -> Return
Object = #objrefPullSupplier = #objref of PullSupplier typeReturn = void This operation connects PullSupplier object to the ProxyPullConsumer object.
If a nil object reference is passed CORBA standard BAD_PARAM exception
is raised. If the ProxyPullConsumer is already connected to a PullSupplier,
then the AlreadyConnected exception is raised.
disconnect_pull_consumer(Object) -> Return
Object = #objrefReturn = voidThis operation disconnects proxy pull consumer from the event channel and sends a notification about the loss of the connection to the pull supplier attached to it.
