Interface ValueDefOperations

All Superinterfaces:

ContainedOperations, ContainerOperations, IDLTypeOperations, IRObjectOperations

All Known Subinterfaces:

ValueDef

public interface ValueDefOperations
extends ContainerOperations, ContainedOperations, IDLTypeOperations

This interface represents a value definition that is stored in the Interface Repository. It can contain constants, typedefs, exceptions, operations, and attributes. This interface is very close to a class type.
