Class XdrChar

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.acplt.oncrpc.XdrChar
All Implemented Interfaces:
XdrAble

public class XdrChar
extends java.lang.Object
implements XdrAble

Instances of the class XdrChar represent (de-)serializeable chars, which are especially useful in cases where a result with only a single char is expected from a remote function call or only a single char parameter needs to be supplied.

Please note that this class is somewhat modelled after Java's primitive data type wrappers. As for these classes, the XDR data type wrapper classes follow the concept of values with no identity, so you are not allowed to change the value after you've created a value object.


Field Summary
private  char value
          The encapsulated char value itself.
 
Constructor Summary
XdrChar()
          Constructs and initializes a new XdrChar object.
XdrChar(char value)
          Constructs and initializes a new XdrChar object.
 
Method Summary
 char charValue()
          Returns the value of this XdrChar object as a char primitive.
 void xdrDecode(XdrDecodingStream xdr)
          Decodes -- that is: deserializes -- a XDR char from a XDR stream in compliance to RFC 1832.
 void xdrEncode(XdrEncodingStream xdr)
          Encodes -- that is: serializes -- a XDR char into a XDR stream in compliance to RFC 1832.
