Description

Return Values

If the member function succeeds, the parent context of the Context object is returned. The parent context may be nil. Use the CORBA::is_nil member function to test for a nil object reference.

If the member function does not succeed, an exception is thrown. Use the CORBA::is_nil member function to test for a nil object reference.
