public abstract class ServerRequest extends Object
Request
object in the DII.
The ORB is responsible for creating this embodiment of a request,
and delivering it to a Dynamic Implementation Routine (DIR).
A dynamic servant (a DIR) is created by implementing the
DynamicImplementation
class,
which has a single invoke
method. This method accepts a
ServerRequest
object.
The abstract class ServerRequest
defines
methods for accessing the
method name, the arguments and the context of the request, as
well as methods for setting the result of the request either as a
return value or an exception.
A subtlety with accessing the arguments of the request is that the
DIR needs to provide type information about the
expected arguments, since there is no compiled information about
these. This information is provided through an NVList
,
which is a list of NamedValue
objects.
Each NamedValue
object
contains an Any
object, which in turn
has a TypeCode
object representing the type
of the argument.
Similarly, type information needs to be provided for the response,
for either the expected result or for an exception, so the methods
result
and except
take an Any
object as a parameter.

Retrieves the name of the operation being
invoked. According to OMG IDL's rules, these names must be unique
among all operations supported by this object's "most-derived"
interface. Note that the operation names for getting and setting
attributes are _get_<attribute_name>
and _set_<attribute_name>

respectively.

The DIR must pass in to the method arguments
an NVList initialized with TypeCodes and Flags
describing the parameter types for the operation, in the order in which
they appear in the IDL specification (left to right). A

the method set_exception

the DIR must supply the returned NVList with return
values for any "out" arguments before returning, and may also change
the return values for any "inout" arguments.

Returns the given exception to the client. This method
is invoked by the DIR, which may call it at any time.
The Any
object passed to this method must
contain either a system
exception or one of the user exceptions specified in the
invoked operation's IDL definition. Passing in an
Any
object that does not contain an exception
will cause a BAD_PARAM system exception to be thrown. Passing
in an unlisted user exception will result in either the DIR receiving a
BAD_PARAM system exception or in the client receiving an
UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION system exception.
