Method Details

assign

public void assign(DynAny from)
            throws TypeMismatch
Initialises the value of this DynAny with the value, stored inside the passed DynAny, making a shallow copy.
Parameters:
from - the DynAny to copy from.
Throws:
TypeMismatch - if the source DynAny is invalid.

component_count

public int component_count()
Get the number number of fields in the enclosed structure or number of memebers in the enclosed array, sequence, enumeration, etc. This method only counts elements at the top level. For instance, if invoked on a DynStruct with a single member, it returns 1, irrespective of the type of the member.
Returns:
number of components or 0 if the enclosed Any is not divideable.

copy

public DynAny copy()
Fully clones the content of this Any, returning a deep copy.

current_component

public DynAny current_component()
            throws TypeMismatch
Returns the focused component of this DynAny. The DynAny has the internal pointer (reference) that can point to one of its components. The returned DynAny can be used to get or set the value of the focused component. If the DynAny holds a primitive type with no components, this implementation returns null.
Throws:
TypeMismatch - if called on DynAny that cannot have active components, like DynEnum.

destroy

public void destroy()
Destroys this DynAny, freeing the used resources. In java, resources are freed by the garbage collectors, so this method typically returns without action.
