CharSeqHelper (GNU Classpath 0.94-pre Documentation)

Class CharSeqHelper

public abstract class CharSeqHelper extends Object

Provides static helper methods for working with CORBA sequence of char (CharSeq).

Method Summary
static char[]	extract(Any a) Extract the `char[]` from the given {@link Any}.
static String	id() Returns the agreed Id, delegating functionality to the {@link #type()}.id().
static void	insert(Any into, char[] that) Insert into the given `char[]` into the given {@link Any}.
static char[]	read(InputStream input) Reads the `char[]` from the CORBA input stream.
static TypeCode	type() Creates and returns a new instance of the TypeCode, corresponding the CORBA `CharSeq`.
static void	write(OutputStream output, char[] value) Writes the `char[]` into the given stream.

Method Summary

static char[]

extract(Any a)

Extract the char[] from the given {@link Any}.

static String

id()

Returns the agreed Id, delegating functionality to the {@link #type()}.id().

static void

insert(Any into, char[] that)

Insert into the given char[] into the given {@link Any}.

static char[]

read(InputStream input)

Reads the char[] from the CORBA input stream.

static TypeCode

type()

Creates and returns a new instance of the TypeCode, corresponding the CORBA CharSeq.

static void

write(OutputStream output, char[] value)

Writes the char[] into the given stream.

Method Detail

extract

Extract the char[] from the given {@link Any}. This implementation expects the {@link Any} to hold the instance of {@link CharSeqHolder} that is returned by {@link Any#extract_Streamable() }.

Parameters: a an Any to extract the array from.

Returns: the extracted array.

Throws: ClassCastException if the Any contains something other than the the {@link CharSeqHolder}.

Returns the agreed Id, delegating functionality to the {@link #type()}.id().

insert

Insert into the given char[] into the given {@link Any}. This implementation first creates a {@link CharSeqHolder} and then calls {@link Any#insert_Streamable(Streamable)}.

Parameters: into the target Any. that the array to insert.

read

Reads the char[] from the CORBA input stream.

Parameters: input the CORBA (not java.io) stream to read from.

Returns: the value from the stream.

type

Creates and returns a new instance of the TypeCode, corresponding the CORBA CharSeq. The length of the sequence is left with the initial value 0.

write

Writes the char[] into the given stream.

Parameters: output the CORBA (not java.io) output stream to write. value the value that must be written.
