Chapter 15 Working with IDL

Data type

You create a CORBA data type using a class with the <<CORBAPrimitive>> stereotype.

Fixed data type

You create a CORBA fixed data type using a class with the <<CORBAFixed>> stereotype. When you apply the stereotype, the following extended attributes are automatically added to the class:

• digits: indicates the number of digits of the fixed-point decimal number
• scale: indicates the scale of the fixed-point decimal number
• You have to define a value for each extended attribute.

typedef fixed<8, 3> Class_1;
