Class ProxyPushConsumerPOATie

The ProxyPushConsumer interface supports connections to the channel by suppliers who will push events to the channel as untyped Anys. Through inheritance of the ProxyConsumer interface, the ProxyPushConsumer interface supports administration of various QoS properties, administration of a list of associated filter objects, and a readonly attribute containing the reference of the SupplierAdmin object which created it. In addition, this inheritance implies that a ProxyPushConsumer instance supports an operation which will return the list of event types which consumers connected to the same channel are interested in receiving, and an operation which can return information about the instances ability to accept a per-event QoS request. The ProxyPushConsumer interface also inherits from the PushConsumer interface defined within the CosNotifyComm module. This interface supports the push operation which the supplier connected to a ProxyPushConsumer instance will invoke to send an event to the channel in the form of an Any, and the operation required to disconnect the ProxyPushConsumer from its associated supplier. In addition, since the inherited PushConsumer interface inherits the CosNotifyComm::NotifyPublish interface, a supplier connected to an instance supporting the ProxyPushConsumer interface can inform it whenever the list of event types the supplier plans to supply changes. Finally, the ProxyPushConsumer interface defines the operation which can be invoked by a push supplier to establish the connection over which the push supplier will send events to the channel. Note that this can be either a pure event service style, or a notification service style push supplier.
