Method Detail

read_value

public Serializable read_value()

Unmarshalls a value type from the input stream.

Returns:

the value type unmarshalled from the input stream

read_value

public Serializable read_value(Class clz)

Unmarshalls a value type from the input stream.

Parameters:

clz - is the declared type of the value to be unmarshalled

Returns:

the value unmarshalled from the input stream

read_value

public Serializable read_value(BoxedValueHelper factory)

Unmarshalls a value type from the input stream.

Parameters:

factory - is the instance fo the helper to be used for unmarshalling the value type

Returns:

the value unmarshalled from the input stream

read_value

public Serializable read_value(String rep_id)

Unmarshalls a value type from the input stream.

Parameters:

rep_id - identifies the type of the value to be unmarshalled

Returns:

value type unmarshalled from the input stream

read_value

public Serializable read_value(Serializable value)

Unmarshalls a value type from the input stream.

Parameters:

value - is an uninitialized value which is added to the orb's indirection table before calling Streamable._read() or CustomMarshal.unmarshal() to unmarshal the value.

Returns:

value type unmarshalled from the input stream

read_abstract_interface

public Object read_abstract_interface()

Unmarshal the value object or a suitable stub object.

Returns:

ORB runtime returns the value object or a suitable stub object.

read_abstract_interface

public Object read_abstract_interface(Class clz)

Unmarshal the class object or the stub class corresponding to the passed type.

Parameters:

clz - is the Class object for the stub class which corresponds to the type that is statically expected.

Returns:

ORB runtime returns the value object or a suitable stub object.
