Class org.omg.CORBA.Any 

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----org.omg.CORBA.Any
public class Any
extends Object
Class Any is a container for any data that can be described in IDL or any IDL primitive type.

For each primitive type X, the following operations exist:

void insert_X(X x);
This operations allows the insertion of a an instance x of primitive type X into the Any.
X extract_X();
This operation allows the extraction of an instance of type X from the Any. If the type of the element contained in the Any is not X, the operation throws a BAD_OPERATION exception.
