virtual std::string unity::scopes::Object::endpoint ( )
pure virtual

Returns the endpoint this proxy connects to.

Returns
The endpoint of the proxy.
virtual std::string unity::scopes::Object::identity ( )
pure virtual

Returns the identity of the target object of this proxy.

Returns
The identity of the target of the proxy.
virtual std::string unity::scopes::Object::target_category ( )
pure virtual

Returns the category of the target object of this proxy.

Returns
The category of the target of the proxy.
virtual int64_t unity::scopes::Object::timeout ( )
pure virtual

Returns the timeout in milliseconds if this proxy is a twoway proxy.

For oneway proxies and twoway proxies without a timeout, the return value is -1.

Returns
The timeout value in milliseconds (-1 if none or timeout does not apply).
