Method Detail

extract

public static Any[] extract(Any a)

Extract the array of Any's from the given Any. This implementation expects the Any to hold the instance of AnySeqHolder that is returned by Any.extract_Streamable().

Parameters:

a - an Any to extract the array from.

Returns:

the extracted array.

Throws:

ClassCastException - if the Any contains something other than the the AnySeqHolder.

id

public static String id()

Returns the agreed Id, delegating functionality to the type().id().

insert

public static void insert(Any into,
          Any[] that)

Insert into the given Any[] into the given Any. This implementation first creates a AnySeqHolder and then calls Any.insert_Streamable(Streamable).

Parameters:

into - the target Any.

that - the array to insert.

read

public static Any[] read(InputStream input)

Reads the Any[] from the CORBA input stream. This implementation first creates an instance of AnySeqHolder and then delegates functionality to its _read() method.

Parameters:

input - the CORBA (not java.io) stream to read from.

Returns:

the value from the stream.

type

public static TypeCode type()

Creates and returns a new instance of the TypeCode, corresponding the array of Any's. The length of the sequence is left with the initial value 0.

write

public static void write(OutputStream output,
         Any[] value)

Writes the array of Any's into the given stream.

Parameters:

output - the CORBA (not java.io) output stream to write.

value - the value that must be written.
