Class ConfEBig

Object
com.tailf.proto.ConfEObject
com.tailf.proto.ConfEBig
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable
public class ConfEBig extends ConfEObject implements Serializable, Cloneable
Provides a Java representation of E integral types. E does not distinguish between different integral types, however this class and its subclasses ConfEByte, ConfEChar, ConfEInt, and ConfEShort attempt to map the E types onto the various Java integral types. Two additional classes, ConfEUInt and ConfEUShort are provided for Corba compatibility. See the documentation for IC for more information.
