IiopSetAnyAsWChar Function

Action

Assigns a wide character to an instance of the Any type and associates the instance with a CORBA object. The instance of the Any type is created and released automatically. This function can be used to set parameters of a request in advance of calling the IiopRequest function.

Syntax

IiopSetAnyAsWChar( in hIiop  : number,
                   in nWChar : number,
                   in nType  : number optional ): boolean;

Return value

true if successful
false otherwise

Parameter	Description
hIiop	Handle to a CORBA object.
nWChar	Wide character that is assigned to the instance of the Any type and then associated with the CORBA object.
nType	Defines the byte order of the wide character (optional). Pass one of the following flags to the function: IIOP_BYTE_ORIENTED (default) IIOP_WIDE_LITTLE_ENDIAN IIOP_WIDE_BIG_ENDIAN

Parameter

Description

hIiop

Handle to a CORBA object.

nWChar

Wide character that is assigned to the instance of the Any type and then associated with the CORBA object.

nType

Defines the byte order of the wide character (optional). Pass one of the following flags to the function:

IIOP_BYTE_ORIENTED (default)
IIOP_WIDE_LITTLE_ENDIAN
IIOP_WIDE_BIG_ENDIAN

Example

var
  nWChar: number;

dcltrans
  transaction TMain
  const
    HOST   := "192.168.20.21"; // server
    PORT   := 1052;            // port
    KEY    := "...\h00";       // key
    KEYLEN := 4;               // key length
  var
    hIiop: number; // handle to CORBA object
  begin
    IiopSetMaxGiopVersion("1.0");
    IiopSetByteOrder(IIOP_BIG_ENDIAN);

    // retrieve handle to server
    IiopObjectCreate(hIiop, "IDL:DemoObject:1.0", "1.2",
                     HOST, PORT, KEY, KEYLEN);

    // pass wide character parameter to request
    IiopSetAnyAsWChar(hIiop, nWChar);

    // call operation "Print" with wide character parameter
    IiopRequest(hIiop, "Print");
    IiopObjectRelease(hIiop);
  end TMain;
