Types
enum ParameterMode {IN, OUT, INOUT};
struct ParameterDescription {
Identifier name;
RepositoryId id;
RepositoryId defined_in;
TypeCode type;
ParameterMode mode;
};
The describe method, inherited from Contained, returns a ParameterDescription
structure in the value member of the Description structure (defined in the Contained
class).
Attributes
Following is a list of each available attribute, with its corresponding type in parentheses,
followed by a description of its purpose:
type (TypeCode)
The TypeCode that represents the type of the parameter. The TypeCode
returned by the “_get_” form of the type attribute is contained in the
receiving ParameterDef object, which retains ownership. Hence, the
returned TypeCode should not be freed. To obtain a separate copy, use the
TypeCode_copy operation. The “_set_” form of the attribute makes a
private copy of the TypeCode you supply, to keep in the receiving object.
You retain ownership of the passed TypeCode.
mode (ParameterMode)
The ParameterMode of the parameter (IN, OUT, or INOUT).
New Methods
None.
