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.
