- org.omg.CORBA.portable.Delegate

Known Direct Subclasses:: Delegate

public abstract class Delegate

extends Object

Specifies a vendor specific implementation of the Object methods. The calls to these methods are forwarded to the object delegate that can be replaced, if needed. The first parameter is the actual CORBA object to that the operation must be applied. Some methods in this class are not abstract, but no implemented, thowing the NO_IMPLEMENT. This, however, does not mean that they are not implemented in the derived classes as well.

Returns:
as a rule, this.

equals

public boolean equals(Object self,
                      Object other)

hash

public abstract int hash(Object target,
                         int maximum)

Parameters:
target - the CORBA object, to that this operation must be applied.
maximum - the maximal value to return.
Returns:
the hashcode.

hashCode

Returns:
the hashcode.
