Can a persisted proxy be reused after IceGrid restart?

If I persist a proxy by doing _ice_toString(), then IceGrid restarted, can that proxy still be used?

I'm guessing the answer is no unless IceGrid uses the same endpoint address for all adapters after it restarted?

Thanks

    Hi,

    I'm assuming you're referring to indirect proxies here. If you convert an indirect proxy to a string, the resulting string will retain its indirect nature and have one of the following forms:
    • objectid (for a well-known object)
    • objectid @ adapterid
    • objectid @ replicaid
    Consequently, these proxies will continue to work regardless of how the IceGrid endpoint configurations change. Remember that, in order to resolve indirect proxies, a client only needs a proxy for the locator; as long as you update the client's locator proxy whenever the registry's client endpoints change, everything will work correctly.

    Regards,

  • Thats right. I'm referring to indirect proxies. I forgot about the fact that they are indirect.

    Thanks
