Dynamic Creation of Type Codes
The first step in the creation of a DynAny is to obtain a type code that describes the layout of the data held by the any. In general, if you are building a dynamic application such as a CORBA bridge, it is necessary to create type codes dynamically.
The interface for creating type codes dynamically is defined by a subset of operations in CORBA::ORB. A number of additional data types, borrowed from the interface repository IDL, are also used. Excerpts from the relevant IDL are shown in Listing 17.1.
