Overview | The Contained interface is inherited by all Interface Repository interfaces that are contained by other objects. All objects within the Interface Repository, except the root object (Repository) and definitions of anonymous types (ArrayDef, StringDef, and SequenceDef), and primitive types are contained by other objects. |

Intended Usage
The Contained interface is not itself instantiated as a means of accessing the Interface Repository. As an ancestor to certain Interface Repository objects, it provides a specific list of operations as noted below. Those Interface Repository objects that inherit (directly or indirectly) the operations defined in Contained include: ModuleDef, ConstantDef, StructDef, UnionDef, EnumDef, AliasDef, ExceptionDef, AttributeDef, OperationDef, and InterfaceDef.
Syntax
module CORBA { typedef string VersionSpec; interface Contained:IRObject { // read/write interface attribute RepositoryId id; attribute Identifier name; attribute VersionSpec version; // read interface readonly attribute Container defined_in; readonly attribute ScopedName absolute_name; readonly attribute Repository containing_repository; struct Description { DefinitionKind kind; any value; }; Description describe (); }; };
