                 Recentest

Recentest is like Latest, but without using a clock or TimeHandler. As a result, it can only guarantee causality, not synchrony. However, for most users, Recentest is preferable to Latest.

init(self, initval, translator=<function empty_translator at 0x857b5a4>)
(Constructor)

source code

Parameters:

initval - the initial value
translator - the translator for the value, or the empty_translator if unspecified.

set_handler(self, handler)

source code

The set_handler method accepts a Handler. It must cause that Handler to have its register() method called with an appropriate DObject. This can often be accomplished by simply calling another HandlerAcceptor's set_handler method.
