16.7.4 Programming Example
The following example uses the IDL encoding service features described in the
preceding sections. The example verifies that the results of a number of decoding
operations are the same as the parameters used to create the corresponding encodings.
The interface definition for this example is as follows:
[uuid(20aac780-5398-11c9-b996-08002b13d56d), version(0)]
interface es_array
{
const long N = 5000;
typedef struct
{
byte b;
long l;
} s_t;
typedef struct
{
byte b;
long a[7];
} t_t;
void in_array_op1([in] handle_t h, [in] long arr[N]);
void out_array_op1([in] handle_t h, [out] long arr[N]);
void array_op2([in] handle_t h, [in,out] s_t big[N]);
void array_op3([in] handle_t h, [in,out] t_t big[N]);
}
The attribute configuration file for the example is as follows:
interface es_array
{
[encode] in_array_op1();
[decode] out_array_op1();
[encode, decode] array_op2();
[encode, decode] array_op3();
}
