Remote Python Call 2.60

RPyC stands for Remote Python Call, a pun over remote procedure call. It is completely transparent and symmetrical. It is inspired by the work of eyal lotem (pybuild.sf.net) on pyinvoke, and was made for two purposes:
Learning the lowlevel of the python language attempting to improve pyinvoke by making the entire protocol symmetrical. This means the client can make requests to the server, and the server can reply with requests of its own (the client is also a server on its own). This typically means using callback functions.
The RPyC package comes with a full demo, showing (or showing-off) many of its features. As i said, its completely transparent and symmetrical, so you can write code just as you would write in the case of normal python programs.
demo 1 -- a simple client demo
# import the client
from Rpyc.Client import RpycSocketClient
# `hostname` is the name of the host running an Rpyc server
# the port parameter is optional
c = RpycSocketClient("hostname")
# now we are connected and can start messing around with stuff on the server
for filename in c.modules.os.listdir("/tmp"):
print "found file", filename
Enhancements:
- This release adds DeliveringNamespace, LoginError (instead of tlslites internal errors), __version__, deliver (the counterpart of obtain, which can now deliver and obtain functions as well), and isproxy (to test whether an object is a proxy).
- It improves memory consumption with __slots__ and the isinstance/issubclass mechanism.
