Package org.omg.CORBA.portable

Provides a portability layer, that is, a set of ORB APIs that makes it possible for code generated by one vendor to run on another vendor's ORB.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
BoxedValueHelper
CustomValue	An extension of ValueBase that is implemented by custom value types.
IDLEntity	An interface with no members whose only purpose is to serve as a marker indicating that an implementing class is a Java value type from IDL that has a corresponding Helper class.
InvokeHandler	This interface provides a dispatching mechanism for an incoming call.
ResponseHandler	This interface is supplied by an ORB to a servant at invocation time and allows the servant to later retrieve an OutputStream for returning the invocation results.
Streamable	The base class for the Holder classess of all complex IDL types.
StreamableValue	Defines the base type for all non-boxed IDL valuetypes that are not custom marshaled.
ValueBase	The generated Java classes corresponding to valuetype IDL types implement this interface.
ValueFactory	The ValueFactory interface is the native mapping for the IDL type CORBA::ValueFactory.
ValueInputStream	Java to IDL ptc 02-01-12 1.5.1.4 ValueInputStream is used for implementing RMI-IIOP stream format version 2.
ValueOutputStream	Java to IDL ptc 02-01-12 1.5.1.3 ValueOutputStream is used for implementing RMI-IIOP stream format version 2.

Class Summary

Class	Description
Delegate	Specifies a portable API for ORB-vendor-specific implementation of the org.omg.CORBA.Object methods.
InputStream	InputStream is the Java API for reading IDL types from CDR marshal streams.
ObjectImpl	The common base class for all stub classes; provides default implementations of the org.omg.CORBA.Object methods.
OutputStream	OuputStream is the Java API for writing IDL types to CDR marshal streams.
ServantObject	This class is part of the local stub API, the purpose of which is to provide high performance calls for collocated clients and servers (i.e.

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
ApplicationException	This class is used for reporting application level exceptions between ORBs and stubs.
IndirectionException	The Indirection exception is a Java specific system exception.
RemarshalException	This class is used for reporting locate forward exceptions and object forward GIOP messages back to the ORB.
UnknownException	The org.omg.CORBA.portable.UnknownException is used for reporting unknown exceptions between ties and ORBs and between ORBs and stubs.

Package org.omg.CORBA.portable Description

Provides a portability layer, that is, a set of ORB APIs that makes it possible for code generated by one vendor to run on another vendor's ORB. Stubs and other code, generated either from IDL or interfaces written in the Java programming language, can call into these ORB APIs.

CORBA Features Throwing NO_IMPLEMENT() Exceptions

Some methods throw NO_IMPLEMENT() exceptions by default, but ORB vendors can override them to provide real implementations. The ORB included in Sun's release of the Java[tm] Platform, Standard Edition 6, includes implementations for the following methods.
