CORBA24 — Efficient construction of Any types w/o DynamicAny

  • Key: CORBA24-63
  • Legacy Issue Number: 3185
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    The current C++ mapping does not offer efficient insertion or
    extraction of data from CORBA::Any if static type information
    (IDL-generated insertion and extraction operators) are not
    available.

    I'm thinking of a dynamic DII gateway that needs to shovel large
    amounts of data, such as a sequence<octet>. Presently, the gateway
    must employ the DynAny type, and loop over the number of elements,
    calling insert_octet() or get_octet() repeatedly. This is inefficient,
    especially for large sequences/arrays of basic types.

    I think that a more efficient mechanism might be useful for some
    applications.
