Interface DynAny

All Known Subinterfaces:

DynArray, DynEnum, DynFixed, DynSequence, DynStruct, DynUnion, DynValue

public abstract interface DynAny

extends Object

org.omg.CORBA.Any values can be dynamically interpreted (traversed) and constructed through DynAny objects. A DynAny object is associated with a data value which may correspond to a copy of the value inserted into an Any. The DynAny APIs enable traversal of the data value associated with an Any at runtime and extraction of the primitive constituents of the data value.
