    This class handles communication between two processes. One instance is present on 
    each process and listens for communication from the other process. This enables
    (amongst other things) ObjectProxy instances to look up their attributes and call 
    their methods.
    
    This class is responsible for carrying out actions on behalf of the remote process.
    Each instance holds one end of a Connection which allows python
    objects to be passed between processes.
    
    For the most common operations, see _import(), close(), and transfer()
    
    To handle and respond to incoming requests, RemoteEventHandler requires that its
    processRequests method is called repeatedly (this is usually handled by the Process

    Proxy to an object stored by the remote process. Proxies are created
    by calling Process._import(), Process.transfer(), or by requesting/calling
    attributes on existing proxy objects.
    
    For the most part, this object can be used exactly as if it
    were a local object::
    
        rsys = proc._import('sys')   # returns proxy to sys module on remote process
        rsys.stdout                  # proxy to remote sys.stdout
        rsys.stdout.write            # proxy to remote sys.stdout.write
        rsys.stdout.write('hello')   # calls sys.stdout.write('hello') on remote machine
                                     # and returns the result (None)
    
    When calling a proxy to a remote function, the call can be made synchronous
    (result of call is returned immediately), asynchronous (result is returned later),
    or return can be disabled entirely::
    
        ros = proc._import('os')
        
        ## synchronous call; result is returned immediately
        pid = ros.getpid()
        
        ## asynchronous call
        request = ros.getpid(_callSync='async')

            time.sleep(0.01)
        pid = request.result()
        
        ## disable return when we know it isn't needed
        rsys.stdout.write('hello', _callSync='off')

    returned either by value (must be picklable) or by proxy.

        arrValue = rnp.array([1,2,3,4], _returnType='value')
    
    The default callSync and returnType behaviors (as well as others) can be set 
    for each proxy individually using ObjectProxy._setProxyOptions() or globally using 
    proc.setProxyOptions().
