InterfaceDefPOA

public interface InterfaceDefOperations

extends ContainerOperations, ContainedOperations, IDLTypeOperations

An InterfaceDef object represents an interface definition. It can contain constants, typedefs, exceptions, operations, and attributes.

Method Summary

InterfaceDef[]	base_interfaces() The base_interfaces attribute lists all the interfaces from which this interface inherits.
void	base_interfaces(InterfaceDef[] value) The base_interfaces attribute lists all the interfaces from which this interface inherits.
AttributeDef	create_attribute(java.lang.String id, java.lang.String name, java.lang.String version, IDLType type, AttributeMode mode) The create_attribute operation returns a new AttributeDef contained in the InterfaceDef on which it is invoked.
OperationDef	create_operation(java.lang.String id, java.lang.String name, java.lang.String version, IDLType result, OperationMode mode, ParameterDescription[] params, ExceptionDef[] exceptions, java.lang.String[] contexts) The create_operation operation returns a new OperationDef contained in the InterfaceDef on which it is invoked.
FullInterfaceDescription	describe_interface() The describe_interface operation returns a FullInterfaceDescription describing the interface, including its operations and attributes.
boolean	is_a(java.lang.String interface_id) The is_a operation returns TRUE if the interface on which it is invoked either is identical to or inherits, directly or indirectly, from the interface identified by its interface_id parameter.

Method Detail

base_interfaces

public InterfaceDef[] base_interfaces()

The base_interfaces attribute lists all the interfaces from which this interface inherits.

base_interfaces

public void base_interfaces(InterfaceDef[] value)

The base_interfaces attribute lists all the interfaces from which this interface inherits.

is_a

public boolean is_a(java.lang.String interface_id)

The is_a operation returns TRUE if the interface on which it is invoked either is identical to or inherits, directly or indirectly, from the interface identified by its interface_id parameter. Otherwise it returns FALSE.

describe_interface

public FullInterfaceDescription describe_interface()

The describe_interface operation returns a FullInterfaceDescription describing the interface, including its operations and attributes.

create_attribute

public AttributeDef create_attribute(java.lang.String id,
                                     java.lang.String name,
                                     java.lang.String version,
                                     IDLType type,
                                     AttributeMode mode)

The create_attribute operation returns a new AttributeDef contained in the InterfaceDef on which it is invoked.

create_operation

public OperationDef create_operation(java.lang.String id,
                                     java.lang.String name,
                                     java.lang.String version,
                                     IDLType result,
                                     OperationMode mode,
                                     ParameterDescription[] params,
                                     ExceptionDef[] exceptions,
                                     java.lang.String[] contexts)

The create_operation operation returns a new OperationDef contained in the InterfaceDef on which it is invoked.
