33 * The Holder for <tt>Int</tt>.  For more information on
34 * Holder files, see <a href="doc-files/generatedfiles.html#holder">
35 * "Generated Files: Holder Files"</a>.<P>
36 * A Holder class for an <code>int</code>
37 * that is used to store "out" and "inout" parameters in IDL methods.
38 * If an IDL method signature has an IDL <code>long</code> as an "out"
39 * or "inout" parameter, the programmer must pass an instance of
40 * <code>IntHolder</code> as the corresponding
41 * parameter in the method invocation; for "inout" parameters, the programmer
42 * must also fill the "in" value to be sent to the server.
43 * Before the method invocation returns, the ORB will fill in the
44 * value corresponding to the "out" value returned from the server.
45 * <P>
46 * If <code>myIntHolder</code> is an instance of <code>IntHolder</code>,
47 * the value stored in its <code>value</code> field can be accessed with
48 * <code>myIntHolder.value</code>.
