 On the client side, taking offline an object results in a permanent disconnection of the remote far references pointing to it. In other words, despite having network connection, unexporting an object renders remote far references permanently disconnected. This implies that client have to deal explicitly with unexported objects.  On the client side, taking offline an object results in a permanent disconnection of the remote far references pointing to it.

-Clients can get notified when an object is taken offline by means of ''when:disconnected:'' observers. Disconnected observers get triggered since the taking offline event is considered as a logical disconnection between two devices. However, an object taken offline is removed from the export table and thus, it cannot go online anymore. As a result, the disconnected and reconnected observers will be no longer trigger for that remote far reference. +Clients can get notified when an object is taken offline by means of ''when:disconnected:'' observers.

 Additionally, AmbientTalk provides dedicated takenOffline observers which get triggered only once when the object is taken offline. They are installed similarly to when:disconnected observers as follows: Additionally, AmbientTalk provides dedicated takenOffline observers which get triggered only once when the object is taken offline.
