Inherited from Componentized:

Method locateAdapterClass Undocumented

Method addAdapter Utility method that calls addComponent. I take an adapter class and instantiate it with myself as the first argument.
Method setComponent Undocumented
Method addComponent Add a component to me, for all appropriate interfaces.
Method unsetComponent Remove my component specified by the given interface class.
Method removeComponent Remove the given component from me entirely, for all interfaces for which it has been registered.
Method getComponent Create or retrieve an adapter for the given interface.

Method __setstate__ Undocumented
Method __getstate__ Get state, adding a version number to it on its way out.
Method versionUpgrade (internal) Do a version upgrade.
def __init__(self, *args, **kw): (source)
Parameterschannelthe channel we're connected to.
queuedare we in the request queue, or can we start writing to the transport?
def getStateToCopyFor(self, issuer): (source)

Gather state to send when I am serialized for a particular perspective.

I will default to calling getStateToCopy. Override this to customize this behavior.
