DRb::DRbUnknown

Class wrapping a marshalled object whose type is unknown locally.

If an object is returned by a method invoked over drb, but the class of the object is unknown in the client namespace, or the object is a constant unknown in the client namespace, then the still-marshalled object is returned wrapped in a DRbUnknown instance-

If this object is passed as an argument to a method invoked over drb, then the wrapped object is passed instead-

The class or constant name of the object can be read from the name attribute- The marshalled object is held in the buf attribute-
