Class IntHolder

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.omg.CORBA.IntHolder
All Implemented Interfaces:
Streamable

public final class IntHolder
extends Object
implements Streamable

A holder for CORBA long that is mapped into java int. The holders have several application areas. The end user usually sees them implementing CORBA methods where the primitive type is passed by reference. While CORBA (or, for example, C) supports this, the java does not and a wrapper class is required.


Field Summary
 int value
          The int (CORBA long) value, held by this IntHolder.
 
Constructor Summary
IntHolder()
          Constructs an instance of IntHolder, initializing value to 0.
IntHolder(int initial_value)

Field Detail

value

public int value
The int (CORBA long) value, held by this IntHolder.

Constructor Detail

IntHolder

public IntHolder()
Constructs an instance of IntHolder, initializing value to 0.


IntHolder

public IntHolder(int initial_value)
Constructs an instance of IntHolder, initializing value to the given int.

Parameters:
initial_value - a value that will be assigned to the value field.
Method Detail

_read

public void _read(InputStream input)
Fill in the value field by reading the required data from the given stream. For long, the functionality is delegated to InputStream.read_long().

Specified by:
_read in interface Streamable
Parameters:
input - the input stream to read from.

_type

public TypeCode _type()
Returns the TypeCode, corresponding the CORBA type that is stored using this holder.

Specified by:
_type in interface Streamable

_write

public void _write(OutputStream output)
Write the value field to the given stream. For long, the functionality is delegated to OutputStream.write_long(int).

Specified by:
_write in interface Streamable
Parameters:
output - the output stream to write into.
