Request::poll_response

Overview Determines whether a response to an asynchronous request is available.
Original class CORBA::Request


Intended Usage

The poll_response method is used by a client application that is using the Dynamic Invocation Interface (DII), to determine whether a response is available, after sending one or more deferred requests (for example, using CORBA::Request::send_deferred). This method can be called prior to calling CORBA::Request::get_response, to avoid blocking.

IDL Syntax

  CORBA::Boolean poll_response();

Input parameters

None.

Return values

CORBA::Boolean
A zero return value indicates that a response is not available. A non-zero return value indicates that a response has been received.
