Detailed Description

A factory for values.

Value factories are used in several places, such as when Ice receives a class instance and when Freeze restores a persistent value. Value factories must be implemented by the application writer and registered with the communicator.

Operation Documentation

Value create

(

)

Create a new value for a given value type.

Note that the leading "<code>::</code>" is required.

Parameters

type	The value type.

Returns

The value created for the given type, or nil if the factory is unable to create the value.
