Introduction
|
|
Since RIDL is still in a development process,
so far in the documentation (hierarchy
for all packages) only already final classes were considered. Therefore,
you should visit this Internet page after a certain time interval again.
|
Base functionality
|
|
Base functionality of RIDL is provided by the following classes.
| Class |
Description |
| Any |
The UNO IDL type any is mapped to java type java.lang.Object. In
special cases it is necessary to have an explicit any. |
| Enum |
The Enum class is the base class for all classes generated as java
binding for the IDL type enum. Each java mapped enum class provides
static member of this class which represents the enum values. You
cant create a object of this class or subclass direct, to avoid enum
values with integer values outside the defined range. |
| IFieldDescription |
The IFieldDescription describes non method members. |
| IMemberDescription |
The IMemberDescription is the base interface for members of UNO
types ITypeDescriptions. |
| IMethodDescription |
The IMethodDescription allows to examine a method in detail. It
gives a view to java methods from a UNO point. |
| ITypeDescription |
The ITypeDescription allows to examine a type in detail (e.g. it
is used for marshaling/unmarshaling). |
| Type |
The Type class represents the IDL builtin type type. The IDL type
is not directly mapped to java.lang.Class, because it can be necessary
to describe a type which is unknown to the java runtime system, e.g.
for delaying the need of a class, so that it is possible to generate
it on the fly. |
| Union |
The Union class is the base class for all classes generated as java
binding for the IDL type union. |
