`twisted.internet.defer.Deferred`	`requestService(self, serviceName, perspectiveName, client)` Request a perspective on the specified service.

Method Details

Parameters:: host - The host to connect to or the PB server. If this is "unix", then a UNIX socket will be used rather than a TCP socket.
(type=string); port - The port to connect to for the PB server.
(type=integer); identityName - The name of the identity to use to autheticate with the PB server.
(type=string); password - The password to use to autheticate with the PB server.

Lose my connection to the server.

Useful to free up resources if you've completed requestLogin but then change your mind.

Attempt to authenticate about the PB server, but don't request any services, yet.

Request a perspective on the specified service. This will authenticate against the server as well if requestLogin hasn't already been called.

Parameters:: serviceName - The name of the service to obtain a perspective for.
(type=string); perspectiveName - If specified, the name of the perspective to obtain. Otherwise, default to the name of the identity.
(type=string); client - The client object to attach to the perspective.

Returns:: A deferred which will receive a callback with the perspective.
(type=twisted.internet.defer.Deferred)
