Syntax

IiopSetValue( in hIiop     : number,
              in sRepId    : string optional,
              in sCodeBase : string optionl,
              in bChunked  : boolean optional,
              in nValueId  : number optional ): boolean;

Return value

true if successful
false otherwise

Parameter	Description
hIiop	Handle to a CORBA object.
sRepId	Repository ID of the following value type (optional). This can also be a list of repository IDs. A list of repository IDs is encoded as a concatenation of a separator character (for example, a blank) followed by a repository ID.
sCodeBase	Code base URL (optional).
bChunked	Specifies whether the value should be chunked encoded (optional).
nValueId	Used to reference this value with an indirection (IiopSetValueIndirect; optional).

Example

    HOST        := "192.168.20.21"; // server
    PORT        := 1052;            // port
    KEY         := "...\h00";       // key
    KEYLEN      := 4;               // key length
    REP_ID      := "IDL:SetValueType:1.0";

     // retrieve handle to server
    IiopObjectCreate(hIiop, "IDL:DemoObject:1.0", "1.2", HOST, PORT, KEY, KEYLEN);

    // set value
    IiopSetValue(hIiop, REP_ID);
    IiopSetLong(hIiop, 5);
    IiopEndValue(hIiop ); 

    // set another value
    IiopSetValue(hIiop, REP_ID_LIST, CODE_BASE, TRUE);
    IiopSetBoolean(hIiop, TRUE);
    IiopSetLong(hIiop, 3);
    IiopSetValue(hIiop, REP_Id, "", TRUE);
    IiopSetLong(hIiop, 12);
    IiopEndValue(hIiop );
    IiopSetString(hIiop, "This is a string");
    IiopEndValue(hIiop );

    // call request "SetValue"
    IiopRequest(hIiop, "SetValue");
    IiopObjectRelease(hIiop);
  end TSetValue;
