Method Details

refresh_object(self)

Updates the remote attributes on this object.

Returns:: None

Raises:: NonRefreshableConnectionlessObjectError - If the object is not attached to a connection.

_refresh_object(self, connection_to_use)

Internal method which refreshes the attributes on the object.

This method actually performs two different functionalities.

If the connection to use is the same as the one already attached, with the same connection ID, then a refresh will take place.

If the connection is either a different connection, or the connection ID is different, then an attempt will be made to retrieve the equivalent object to update the attributes.

Parameters:: connection_to_use - The connection object to update with.
(type=AzureusObjectConnection)

Returns:: None

Raises:: NonRefreshableObjectTypeError - Raised when the object type is not one which can be refreshed on broken connections.; NonRefreshableIncompleteObjectError - Raised when the object is missing certain attributes which prevents it being refreshed on broken connections.
