Understanding Proxy Object Methods
As described in previous chapters, proxy objects provide a number of methods that allow you to create other proxy objects and access AppServer procedures. In all, proxy objects support four different types of methods that you can call from an Open Client application:
- Connection — Methods that establish a connection to an AppServer
- Remote 4GL — Methods that invoke non-persistent procedures, internal procedures, or user-defined functions on the AppServer
- Class factory — Methods that create SubAppObjects and ProcObjects
- Common — Methods for managing a proxy object and its AppServer connection
In addition to these methods, the proxy provides run-time properties that you can access for specialized purposes. For more information, see the "Accessing Proxy Run-time Properties" section.
