Class OctetSeqHelper

public abstract class OctetSeqHelper extends Object

Provides static helper methods for working with CORBA sequence of byte (OctetSeq).
Method Summary
static byte[]extract(Any a)
Extract the byte[] from the given Any.
static Stringid()
Returns the agreed Id, delegating functionality to the type.id().
static voidinsert(Any into, byte[] that)
Insert into the given byte[] into the given Any.
static byte[]read(InputStream input)
Reads the byte[] from the CORBA input stream.
static TypeCodetype()
Creates and returns a new instance of the TypeCode, corresponding the CORBA OctetSeq.
static voidwrite(OutputStream output, byte[] value)
Writes the byte[] into the given stream.

Method Detail

extract

public static byte[] extract(Any a)
Extract the byte[] from the given Any. This implementation expects the Any to hold the instance of OctetSeqHolder that is returned by .

Parameters: a an Any to extract the array from.

Returns: the extracted array.

Throws: ClassCastException if the Any contains something other than the the OctetSeqHolder.

id

public static String id()
Returns the agreed Id, delegating functionality to the type.id().

insert

public static void insert(Any into, byte[] that)
Insert into the given byte[] into the given Any. This implementation first creates a OctetSeqHolder and then calls insert_Streamable.

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

read

public static byte[] read(InputStream input)
Reads the byte[] from the CORBA input stream.

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

Returns: the value from the stream.

type

public static TypeCode type()
Creates and returns a new instance of the TypeCode, corresponding the CORBA OctetSeq. The length of the sequence is left with the initial value 0.

write

public static void write(OutputStream output, byte[] value)
Writes the byte[] into the given stream.

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