Python Mapping for Operations on Local Types

An operation on a local interface or a local class is mapped to a Python method with the same name. The mapping of operation parameters to Python is identical to the client-side mapping for these parameters, in particular, when an operation has more than one return value and out parameters, the mapped Python method must return a tuple.

Unlike the client-side mapping, there is no mapped method with a trailing Context parameter.

For example:

Slice
module M
{
    local interface L; // forward declared
    local sequence<L> LSeq;
    local interface L
    {
        string op(int n, string s, LocalObject any, out int m, out string t, out LSeq newLSeq);
    }
}

is mapped to:

Python
class L(object):
    def op(self, n, s, any):
        raise NotImplementedError("method 'op' not implemented")
