Class ShortHolder

public final class ShortHolder extends Object implements Streamable

A holder for CORBA short that is mapped into java short. The holders have several application areas. The end user usually sees them implementing CORBA methods where the primitive type is passed by reference. While CORBA (or, for example, C) supports this, the java does not and a wrapper class is required.
Field Summary
shortvalue

Constructor Summary
ShortHolder()
